Join us at the Autumn Meeting and AGM on Saturday 18 October to celebrate our 150th anniversary!
The conference is taking place from 2pm to 5.30pm at the offices of Affinity Water, Tamblin Way, Hatfield AL10 9EZ.
The programme includes a chance to learn more about the Society’s Victorian founders and their rather different approaches to studying natural history. And there will be a special guest, Hertfordshire’s High Sheriff Nicholas Buxton, who will present the HNHS annual awards and talk about his approach to wildlife conservation on the Easneye Estate, near Ware.
New watersports plan expected for Broadwater Lake SSSI

Although located just outside Hertfordshire, the lake is part of the nationally important Colne Valley wetland system.
