Guided tours of Nottingham
If there are any groups – WI, U3A, Local History Societies etc – who would be interested in a Zoom-version of one of my talks then please get in touch. My talks on Watson Fothergill in Nottingham, The Buildings of Fothergill in Mansfield and On The Trail of Thomas Chambers Hine can all be delivered as an illustrated digital lecture via Zoom. Please contact Lucy to discuss your requirements.
Lucy will be giving an illustrated talk on Fothergill’s Buildings in Mansfield live and in person at Mansfield Central Library on 10 May 2022 at 2pm. Tickets are £3 each and available from the library or via this link on Eventbrite.
Fothergill Watson (as he was then) was born in Mansfield in 1841 and many of his early buildings came about through his connections in the town. The illustrated talk looks at Fothergill’s family, the buildings that he designed in the town that remain, including houses, shops and the Cattle Market. There will also be a chance to discover some of the buildings that have been demolished.
Book now to avoid disappointment!
Lucy is also available to give talks on local architects to groups in Nottinghamshire, in person or via Zoom. Email for more details.
