Medieval Church Chests in Herefordshire and their Conservation

A talk by Rachel Sycamore. Chests were very important items of medieval furniture, with many extant in churches today. Rachel Sycamore provides an insight into the different types of church chests, what they were used for, and what they meant to people in medieval society. She also shares a few of her conservation journeys in preserving church chests for the future. Rachel Sycamore, a local Furniture Restorer and Conservator, and Furniture Adviser to the Hereford Diocese, recorded many church chests in Herefordshire and Worcestershire as part of her Masters Degree over three years. She continues to restore domestic furniture in her Malvern workshop, but her passion lies in conserving church chests in Herefordshire and the surrounding counties, whilst continuing to record them around England. Everyone welcome, free to members, guests £7

Last of the Great Lake’s Steamers

A talk by Philip Hart The Edwardian Era saw the production of thousands of elegant passenger steams ships, the Titanic being one of the best-known. These vessels sailed worldwide and were the main mode of transportation across The Canadian Great Lakes up until the creation of the railways and the Trans-Canadian Highway. Today, the only one still floating, The Keewatin, sits in the restored Victorian boatyard, located at The Great Lakes Museum, Kingston, Ontario. This is the story of her travels, and how she came to be saved, restored, and to become the main attraction at the museum.

The Buildings Archaeologist - provisional

To be confirmed – A talk by James Wright Visit any settlement in the land and there will be ancient buildings hidden in plain sight. Behind a Victorian façade is a Tudor house. Underneath a Georgian frontage is a mediaeval cottage. What is now a modern farm may once have been a castle. We know relatively little about the ancient buildings that surround us, yet buildings archaeology can offer us so many clues for discovering the secrets of hidden historic houses. This talk looks at the ways in which ancient buildings have been studied and conserved, the puzzling ways that some buildings became listed whereas others were overlooked, and how we can really understand the age and development of a structure. With over a quarter of a century of field experience, James Wright uses case studies drawn from his career to explain the fascinating, enigmatic, and surprising world of The Buildings Archaeologist.
