SUMMARY:The People of the Peasants’ Revolt
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Matt Lewis – In the summer of 1381\, the first well documented popular rising in England shook the political foundations of a nation. A teenage king sought to deal with a populace pushed beyond what they could tolerate. What sparked the Peasants’ Revolt? Why is the name it has been given misleading? What can those wrapped up in the revolt\, as rebels and victims\, tell us about medieval England? The people of the Peasants’ Revolt are waiting to tell their stories. Part of the Herefordshire Histories Festival\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Curses to Claimants: a history of Tichborne family
DESCRIPTION:A talk by Will Motley. This talk will tell the history of one of the oldest English families\, the Tichbornes of Hampshire\, who have lived at Tichborne near Winchester since before the Norman Conquest and still live there now.

SUMMARY:The Buildings Archaeologist - provisional
DESCRIPTION:To be confirmed – A talk by James Wright \nVisit 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. \nThis 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.
