Ipswich Historical Society members and volunteers will be taking a short break over the Christmas/New Year period from 2pm Saturday 19 December. The Society will reopen on Saturday 9 January. We thank all of you who visited in 2020 and trust that we will see you again in 2021. Merry Christmas and a Safe, Happy New Year to all.
