‘The Making of a Medieval Masterpiece’
an illustrated talk by
TIM TATTON-BROWN
FRIDAY 25 JUNE 2021at 7.30pm
The 28th April 2020 was the 800th anniversary of the laying of the foundation stones of Salisbury Cathedral. Tim Tatton-Brown, a highly respected authority, had been invited to give a celebratory talk on the subject - but the pandemic put paid to that occasion.
We have successfully persuaded Tim that a 14 month delay is insignificant in the greater scheme of things and we are delighted to welcome him to entertain us with his knowledge, wisdom and wit on this astonishing moment in Salisbury’s illustrious and colourful history – who was there, who was late(!), what was the pecking order for the laying, what else was making the news in the realm at that time . . .
Tim’s talk will be delivered with, no doubt, his well-known infectious enthusiasm and his extraordinary grasp of the subject and will be illustrated by photographs – mostly taken by Dr John Crook FSA, who is an architectural historian, archaeological consultant and, also, a professional and talented photographer.

Salisbury Baroque is delighted to say that, Covid restrictions permitting, they will be back in action on Sunday July 4 in the afternoon with a concert of popular music by Purcell, Vivaldi, Bach and Handel.

You can do this by emailing davidracheld@gmail.com. We will assume that the people you book tickets for can legitimately sit together in the same ‘bubble’ unless you let us know otherwise.
