Objectives of the Society

The Odiham Society's primary objectives are to protect and enhance the heritage, character and environment of the Parish of Odiham, which includes North Warnborough, and to explore its history and development.

To this end the Society represents the interests of members and the wider community in local planning and other issues, while seeking to stimulate public interest and participation in its work through publications, talks, visits, events, exhibitions and historical research.
