Geoff Brandwood Memorial Lecture: Historic building mythbusting

26th Nov, 2024
Bishopsgate, London

This is the second annual lecture in memory of the late Geoff Brandwood, a member of the Society's Council, who through his writing, lecturing and photography did so much to raise awareness and appreciation of our architectural heritage. Mediaeval parish churches are some of the oldest and most loved buildings in the British Isles. However, many unverified stories have grown up around them. This talk will look at some of the commonly repeated tales about the architecture of churches, which are widely assumed to be true, but which ultimately fall into the realm of folklore and myth. The speaker, Dr James Wright (Triskele Heritage), is a buildings archaeologist and the author of the popular Mediaeval Mythbusting Blog.
