South Stoke Historical Society
South Stoke Historical Society has produced a book on South Stoke’s history. The book was originally started more than 20 years ago by the original Historical Society, with several versions of unpublished writings and has now been edited and up-dated. South Stoke’s Past- a Miscellany is a 269 page book recording aspects of South Stoke’s past. There are 14 chapters to dip in and out of on subjects such as the Chapel, Education, the Railway, the Roads and River and the Great Fire of South Stoke in 1905. Photographs and maps old and new abound throughout the chapters.
 
Copies are available from Amazon Books UK. The cost is £10 plus postage. Once on the Amazon Books’ site, put in “South Stoke” and the book will appear. A copy will be on display in Goring Library.
