Publications

Apart from producing the quarterly newsletter, the Society occasionally commissions, edits and produces publications. 

A recent popular and high-profile project was working with the Royal Borough of Greenwich to name new benches in Eltham High Street after prominent people with a significant connection to Eltham.  The publication Sitting Pretty in Eltham tells the stories behind these people.
