In 2027, Abbey House will mark 100 years as a museum. In the lead –up we aim to capture people’s memories of this unique space, from the building and its displays to the people who worked and visited here.

This event is the inaugural Alastair Laurence Lecture. Dr Laurence had a lifelong scholarly devotion to Abbey House and wrote an authoritative work on its history up to 1927.  


Part of Heritage Open Days 2026.
