Recent Meeting

Thursday 18th April
Hugh Hoffman “Statues, Monuments & Memorials of Fife”

Hugh's investigation of his local monuments inevitably led on to finding out more about the people and events they commemorated. What followed was a very entertaining illustrated talk of benefactors such as Andrew Carnegie, authors including Adam Smith who wrote"Wealth of Nations" as well as musicians, heros of football, motor racing, golf, music and showmen including William Cody: "Buffalo Bill" and an Italian hot air baloon pilot. Also industries like fishing and coal mining and scoundrels such as Thomas Cockrane and Alexander Selkirk on whom Robinson Crusoe's story is based. Surely plenty to interest everyone.

Forthcoming DPHS Events

The public are very welcome to come to our meetings.
There is a small charge to cover the cost of tea and biscuits afterwards.
