Description

Join us for a series of evening talks led by Southwark Cathedral historian Guy Rowston in which we will uncover the stories of Southwark and the Cathedral at its heart.

Week two will uncover Tudor and Stuart Southwark. Starting with the impact of the dissolution of the priory, we will discover monumental masons and stained glass painters in the renamed church. We will learn about the Essex Rebellion, the Marian Martyrs and the rise of the theatres. The founding of Guy’s Hospital and the South Sea Bubble will be explored. The talk will end with the demolition threat to the church.

This course is lead by Southwark Cathedral’s expert guide, archivist and historian, Guy Rowston. He is an adult education lecturer in the history and architecture of London. In addition to running history walks he lectures to various historical societies and at the Guildhall Library. He has been connected with Southwark Cathedral for over 40 years.

Payments can also be made on the day in the Cathedral Shop however please check that there are still places by phoning 020 7367 6700.
