The
Society was founded in 1987, by Gordon Ritchie with the intention
of preserving the history and heritage of the town of Stonehaven
and area, and to encourage interest in the history by arranging
meetings, lectures, exhibitions etc. Since then, the Society
has thrived and now has around 350 members. The Society has
published several books on aspects of local history, to order
one of these books see the publications section. The Society
also issues a quarterly magazine, "Stanehyve". Illustrated
talks for members are arranged throughout the year with outings
to places of interest. The Heritage Exhibition is held biannually
to display part of the Society's large collection of photographs
of Old Stonehaven.
