Cryptic Crosswords

Status:Active, open to new members
Coordinator:
Group email: Cryptic Crosswords group
When: On Wednesday afternoons
4th Wed of the month
Venue: City Vaults


We meet at City Vaults (opposite Waterstones), usually in the side area, up a few steps on the right, just beyond the bar, Lunch can be purchased beforehand if required. We are a mixed ability group, who split into smaller groups to work on the same puzzle, then reconvene to go through the solutions & discuss. If anyone fancies giving it a try, contact Debbie.


The August session of our mixed ability group will be on Wednesday 24 August, 2.00 pm until 3.30 pm at City Vaults, with the option to have lunch there beforehand

We currently have room for a couple more people, so do get in touch if you might be interested,

We work in small groups to improve skills, decipher terminology and have fun. Previous experience is not essential, just an interest in cryptic crosswords and learning to master them. New members welcome.
