Listing Details
'Founded in 1972 following a public meeting at Meole Brace near Shrewsbury. The society currently attracts members from throughout the UK and overseas who are devoted to the literature of Mary Webb and appreciate the Shropshire countryside which was so essential to the author’s creative spirit ... The committee plans a programme of about four events a year. These always include a birthday lunch, and a two-day summer school which includes lectures, tours, entertainment and a summer walk. Events are held at various Shropshire locations related to the life and literature of Mary Webb.'
