Local Population Studies Society Final Conference – July 2026.

The LPSS Final Conference will take place at Madingley Hall, Madingley, Cambridgeshire on July 4th 2026.

Further details will be circulated shortly.

The Local Population Studies Society (LPSS) has, since 1972, been the United Kingdom’s only charity solely devoted to the promotion of all aspects of historical demography in a local context. Unfortunately, it is scheduled to be wound up in 2026, following a last conference on 4 July.

The Society has an eclectic publications programme which includes the internationally renowned journal Local Population Studies which contains articles on a wide range of topics from the fields of local, social, and population history. LPSS organizes themed conferences on topics related to local populations in the past.
