Open Days at Dinton Pastures

The Society has a purpose built headquarters at Dinton Pastures Country Park, Reading. Within the Pelham-Clinton Building the library and collections are housed in adjacent rooms, with facilities for books, periodicals and specimens to be consulted and studied. In order to make the library and collections available to members, Open Days are held. Excellent refreshments, including hot lunches, are available from the nearby 'Tea Cosy Cafe'.
