Our club history

In anticipation of celebrating the centenary in 2012 ,  the club researched and traced the history of Three Spires as far back as was possible . It soon became clear that there had been several distinctly separate periods in the club’s history spanning its first 100 years and these were identified as follows :-

                         THE LOST YEARS                            1912 - 1925

                         THE REAL BEGINNING                    1926 - 1927

                         THE GOLDEN YEARS                       1927 - 1951

                         THE DECLINING YEARS                   1952 - 1980

                         THE REVIVAL IN OUR FORTUNES   1981 - 1994

                         THE MILLENIUM & BEYOND             1995 onwards

                         THE BRIDGE BETWEEN THE PAST AND FUTURE

                         THE WAY FORWARD  (currently being developed)

 

Each of the above periods is summarised in their own web pages which follow this web page.

In addition , we also speculated what the following 100 years might hold .       

This series of web pages  is intended to be merely an overview and summary of what has happened over those years but , for the history buffs amongst you who relish more of the detail , you are recommended to refer to and read the Centenary Booklet – “ Three Spires - The First Hundred Years “ .
