Mansfield & Art Deco pubs sell out! More dates coming up in August & September.
Thank you so much to everyone who has shown an interest in my new events.
My new Nottingham Art Deco Pubs talk at The Abdication Micropub has sold out both nights and I’m looking for a venue to hold another performance! More news as it is confirmed.
The Mansfield Meander on 31 August is now full up… so I’m going to squeeze in another one on Sunday 3 August – this will probably fill up fast so don’t delay. I’m also hoping to do this walk for private groups, so if you have 6 or more people who’d be able to do it on a weekday or evening then please, get in touch.
Watson Fothergill Walk – Mansfield Meander: Sunday 3 August, 3 pm
I’m also doing a shortened version of the Watson Fothergill Walk to mark the anniversary of the Architect’s birth on 12th July 1841. Starting at 2 pm outside Bromley House Library (following on from Nigel Lowey’s sold-out talk about architect George Gilbert Scott). I will lead a shorter than usual walk to look at some of Watson Fothergill’s buildings in Nottingham city centre and explore his use of Nottingham bricks, the influence of George Gilbert Scott and the Gothic Revival on his work. At the end of the walk, there will be an opportunity for a short visit to Bromley House Library (as my guest) to see the wonderful hidden garden. Tickets: £15 with a discount for Bromley House Library Members.
Watson Fothergill Birthday Walk: Shorter Walk Special, Saturday 12 July, 2 pm
There are currently tickets available for the original City Centre Watson Fothergill Walk and Hine Hike on the following dates:
Hine Hike: Buildings of Thomas Chambers Hine, Sunday 27 July, 2 pm – 5 tickets remaining.
Watson Fothergill Walk, Sunday 17 August, 10 am – back to early starts to beat the beach rush!
Watson Fothergill Walk, Sunday 7 September, 10 am
There will be another chance to join me for The Carrington Crawl looking at houses by Fothergill and his chief assistant Lawrence George Summers in Mapperley Park, Sherwood Rise and Carrington. Carrington Crawl, Saturday 27 September, 1 pm
And Finally…
I will be running Nottingham Deco in the Details Part 2 for the Art Deco Society UK on Saturday 13 September, at 2 pm. There is a discount for ADSUK members. More details and tickets from ADSUK: Deco In The Details Part 2
As ever – if you’d like a tour or talk for you and your group I have some availability on weekdays – so drop me a message.
