English cathedrals - residential course

 

I am delighted to announce that I will be teaching a short course this autumn at KNUSTON HALL, Northamptonshire on an "Introduction to English Cathedrals". For those of you who do not know Knuston Hall, it is a residential adult college, and I have taught there for several years. It's just three miles from Wellingborough Station where taxis are available. The food is superb and the staff friendly and welcoming. The college fulfills all Covid-19 safety regulations and is deliberately running on small class numbers.

 

The course starts with lunch on Tuesday October 27th and ends after lunch on Thursday October 29th. We`ll look at the way in which all 42 English cathedrals were established and run and as the course is profusely illustrated it's an ideal armchair study, suitable for absolute beginners.
