Sue came to talk to the Ladies Lunch Club at Ashford International Hotel. Her talk was on the Medieval Churches of Romney Marsh. The ladies thoroughly enjoyed the talk and found Sue to be a friendly and entertaining speaker. The talk was very informative with smuggling stories and also interesting tales about each of the churches origins. We are looking forward to having her back again for another talk in the near future!
