Welcome to the website of Lamorbey and Sidcup Local History Society

Our geographical area of interest is the southern region of the London Borough of Bexley in north west Kent, comprising Sidcup, Blackfen, Foots Cray and North Cray. Our interest in local history extends beyond the boundaries of Sidcup into Kent, London and the surrounding areas. This is reflected in the variety of our meetings.

We are pleased to welcome members, prospective new members and visitors to our monthly meetings. 

Join us for a celebration in music at the United Services Club, Sidcup on Saturday 10 May 11am-2.30pm. Learn more about what VE Day means and support our borough’s young musicians from Belvedere Concert Band, Merton Court School Choir and Bexley Music Ensembles.

Take a walk around Lamorbey, Sidcup and Foots Cray with our new heritage Town Trails, including beautifully-illustrated maps and numbered points.

Enjoy our free outdoor exhibition at the old library site in Hadlow Road, Sidcup which tells the story of Sir Harold Gillies and The Queen's Hospital.

Our 'Famous People of Sidcup' banners could be seen in the High Street and Station Road areas during 2019-23. Accompanying leaflets were produced; you can download a copy of the two leaflets.
