Apart from erecting the Liverpool Street Station memorial and commissioning the design of this flag in 1903 or 1905 we can't discover what this society has done, or what it's for.
Active in 2008 and, 2024, this might be their Facebook page Telegraph Hill Park Voice.
The society's website doesn't specify when it came into existence. It contains a number of 'journals', the oldest of which is dated 1980, so maybe it dates from then.
