The Branch meets at 8 pm on the second Wednesday of each month at the Prince of Wales pub, High Street, Shrivenham. Reports are given, tasks discussed, work parties organised (usually for the following Saturday) and beer is quaffed. These meetings are open to all, you do not need to be a Trust member or willing to get your hands dirty, just come along to find out what is happening and to have a chat.
