The Old Rectory, Carshalton
Thursday 22 October 19:30 Postponed from 26 March A Friends of Honeywood Museum Event An illustrated talk by Sue Horne, author of ‘A Respectable Parsonage House’, a history of this Grade II* listed building. Surprisingly, the house only functioned as a rectory for less than a third of its life. The occupants were not, as might be expected, all clergymen. Instead, they were a rich mixture of different people who either owned, lived in, or worked in the Old Rectory over the past 300 years. Ticket £5 (£4 Friends) Provisional bookings are now being taken by ’phone 020 8642 4778. Free tea and coffee from 19:00 |

Alison Weir - Katheryn Howard: The Tainted Queen
Thursday 26 November 19:30 A Friends of Honeywood Museum Event We are delighted to welcome back Alison for another of her wonderful talks. Katheryn Howard’s story is one of the saddest and most shocking episodes in English history. Was she a promiscuous wanton, a capricious flirt or a needy young girl looking for love? Far from being an abused child, as many believe, she was a joyous young woman who drove her own destiny, but became caught up in a situation from which there was no disentanglement. Ticket prices include mulled wine and mince pies! Ticket £7 (£6 Friends) Provisional bookings are now being taken by ’phone 020 8642 4778. |
