I’m excited to be leading a sold out tour of Hampstead later this week for @GeorgianGroup. We’ll be exploring the history steeped slopes of one of London’s best-loved villages. Travelling back to the 18th century when Hampstead was a rural retreat one hours walk from London.
So enjoyed Notes & Queries, the symposium in honour of Richard Hewlings yesterday. It was a privilege to talk alongside such a distinguished array of speakers and just such a lovely occasion. Thank you @elizdeans and @CSCA_Cambridge for organising.
In our second session we heard from @GuerciManolo on John Thorpe and Somerset House, Charles Hind on John Webb and Greenwich Palace, @HorsfallTurner on Turkish baths in Newgate Street, Ian Campbell on Scamozzi, and @Indiaswright on gardens of the Inns of Court #NotesandQueries
