Recognising that sister organisations at times host talks potentially of interest to our members, occasionally we will link to what will be labelled as External Events. Clicking the link will take you through to third parties - in this case to the Garden Museum website - where you can find more information and register here.
This Symposium has been organised by Burghley 500 and will be hosted on Zoom by the Garden Museum. The Garden Museum itself is built on the site of the burial of John Tradescant, gardener to the Cecil family. Contributing experts include Dr Jill Husselby (on Burghley House), Dr Emily Cole (on Theobalds) , Mark Griffiths (on John Gerard), Dr Paula Henderson (on Burghley’s gardens), Karen Hearn (on portraits of Burghley’s wife, Mildred) and Dr Nigel Llewellyn (on Burghley’s monument in St Martin’s Church, Stamford). The day will begin with an introduction by the Marquess of Salisbury, followed by a welcome from Christopher Woodward, Director of the Garden Museum.
