The History of Westcott and Milton (ISBN 0 9539672 0 4) was published in December 2000 but is now out of print and we have no supplies left. We hope to be able to publish an updated edition sometime in 2025.
Village Walks: Details of three self-guided walks, starting from the former Crown pub, The Prince of Wales and the former Cricketers pub are still available on application to the Secretary, price £2 for all three.
An Annual Report was published each June until 2015 with a selection of articles relating to the history of Westcott. Since then we produce 2/3 Newsletters each year
