Membership of the Cramond Association History Section costs only £8 per year, and visitors are always welcome for £2 a meeting.

We are a friendly group of 30-40 members, meeting on Wednesday evenings once a month in the Millennium Hall behind Cramond Kirk, with chat and refreshments afterwards.

We invite speakers on a variety of historical topics, not confined to Cramond, Edinburgh or Scotland, who we hope will be both interesting and entertaining, with plenty of time for questions and discussion.
