The annual Summer Party for members and their guests will take place this year in the beautiful grounds of Morden College. Bring a picnic and enjoy the gardens! We plan to have some entertainment for the younger children and a glass of Pimm's for the adults. We have also been given permission to visit the John Morden Centre, the winner of last year's Stirling Prize for Architecture. It should be an unforgettable event and we are grateful to Morden College for welcoming the Society.
