Lexden history Group

Welcome to the website of the Lexden History Group.

In the nineteenth century Lexden was a small village on the outskirts of Colchester, Britain’s oldest recorded town. Now it is a seamless part of the town.

The Lexden History Group started in 2006 after informal discussions amongst a few residents interested in local, family and house history. 

Membership

Membership of the group is not restricted to Lexden residents; anyone who has links with or who is interested in the area is warmly welcomed.

Lexden History Group is a member of the British  Association for Local History.
