Westward Ho!

Post by GrahamStuart » Tue Jan 24, 2023 3:23 pm

Westward Ho! was the chess newsletter / magazine published by the West of England Chess Union from the 1960’s to the 2000’s. These detailed chess in the West of England, including county results for the Harold Meek and Wayling Cup competitions as well as Congress Reports.

I scanned a number of these and added to the Hampshire Chess History website previously, but following a loan from John Wheeler missing have now been added. There are currently 64 (apt!) on the site, although there are still a number missing which would be good to add if anyone has?

In the meantime, if you would like to read about Chess in the West of England in this period you may enjoy these?
