On Friday 24th February our talk will be ‘Two Georgian Country Houses in the Chilterns’ and will focus on West Wycombe Park and Ashridge. Adam Smith will be joining us; his last talk to us was by Zoom during lockdown when he spoke about ‘The Rothschilds in Aylesbury Vale’. Adam is a lecturer specialising in architectural history and, in particular, the history of English country houses and estates; his talks are always interesting and well-received.
On Friday 24th March our speaker will be Julian Hunt with the subject ‘Brill and Long Crendon’, two Buckinghamshire villages with interesting histories and many well-preserved buildings. Julian is a regular speaker, author and local historian and we are pleased to welcome him back; on his last visit his topic was ‘Buckinghamshire Coaching Inns’, a popular choice.
Both talks will be at 7.30 pm in the Wingrave Community Centre. Free for members of the Heritage Association; £4 on the door for visitors,
