There are currently over 500 members of the Lundy Field Society, mostly in Britain but with others around the world. The society meets annually at its AGM which is usually held in Crediton, near Exeter, at the beginning of March. As well as society business there are talks on recent work on the island and an opportunity to meet other members.

Members often also meet on the island.

New members are always welcome - you can join here.

The LFS produces three publications which are distributed to members, a Newsletter in February, the Annual Report in the autumn and the Journal containing longer academic papers. The Journal is produced annually or biennially depending on contributions. The LFS promotes and publishes research on the island and members also carry out conservation-related work on the island.

If you have something to contribute, please contact the relevant editor.

Latest news

Building on the two previous successful DISCOVER LUNDY weeks in 2012 and 2016, and the 2021 week which was cancelled due to the pandemic, we are organising a follow up event in May 2026. The Discover Lundy week will give you the opportunity to learn much more about the island’s history, archaeology and natural history with expert members of the LFS sharing their knowledge through a series of talks, walks and activities.

2026 is the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Lundy Field Society so we plan to commemorate the anniversary with special events during the week, including a number of social gatherings which were very popular last time.

YouTube videos of the business meeting and the talks given at the 2025 AGM are now available to view online here.

You are invited to attend the Annual General Meeting of the Society at The Boniface Centre, Crediton, EX17 2AH on Saturday 8th March 2025 from 12 noon. See here for directions, but please note that a rail replacement bus service will be running between Exeter, Barnstaple, Okehampton and Crediton on the day. We hope you will be able to join us to renew friendships and meet other members of the Society.
