The Kenfig Society was founded in 1989, with the aim 
'To advance the education of the public in the history of Kenfig and the surrounding district.'
Please note that since Covid in March 2020, the Society has not been active
We'd like to hear of your interest in re-starting, but for the moment no membership subscriptions are being taken



MEETINGS and OUTINGS were the main activity for Members of the Kenfig Society -- and are usually open to others to attend or join in. Monthly meetings are talks from interesting speakers on local or historical topics. Outings are a chance for a guided visit to local places of historical interest. 
NEWSLETTERS: even if you can't make the meetings, you can still find out what is going on!

BOOKS and Booklets by Kenfig Society members: 
Over the years, many booklets on topics related to the history of Kenfig have been produced. A three-part book series KENFIG FOLK recounts the 700 years history of the Borough from its founding in A.D. 1147 to its eventual winding-up in 1886.
​All of the books and some of the booklets are still on sale.
