Elizabethan Houses And The Transformation Of England

Jonathan Foyle traces how Elizabethan cottages, townhouses and country houses shaped the modern home.

The lecture connects changes in domestic architecture—such as chimneys, staircases and glazing—with wider social shifts in Elizabethan England. Dr Jonathan Foyle is the billed lecturer. The usual lecture starts at 14:30 in the Courthouse Hotel Cinema Room, with doors at 14:00 and notices at 14:15. The usual finish is approximate, so the event duration remains unknown. The current Constitution permits one guest per member, if space permits, with the same guest attending at most two meetings per year. The current 2026/27 annual membership is £88; this is not a per-event ticket price. Any guest fee is unpublished.
