HGRG committee and members, old and new, celebrating the Group’s fortieth anniversary in 2013.

The Historical Geography Research Group is one of the largest and most active study groups in the Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers).

On this site you can find out more about the work we do—from organising conferences and supporting postgraduate researchers, to awarding prizes and publishing high-quality scholarship—and how you can join the Group.

In addition, the Historical Geography Research Group, supports the delivery of historically sensitive teaching and learning in geography through ideas and resources for teachers, and advice and inspiration for students, across a range of methods, sources and opportunities. You can find out more about this here.
