The Royal Clarence Fire: the Historical Loss & Survival
Saturday, 5 November
Barnfield Theatre
11.30 doors open for 12.30 to 3.00 pm
Admission is free and is on a first come, first served basis.
The
Royal Clarence Fire has been the most destructive in the recent history
of Exeter. This event is an opportunity to learn what has been lost of
historical significance
but also to discuss what has been miraculously saved. Dr Todd Gray
will outline the destruction of the Royal Clarence itself. Three
leading building specialists of Exeter (John Allan, Richard Parker &
John Thorp) will then outline the significance of the
surrounding buildings. These form an island of largely unappreciated
medieval and later structures in the heart of the city. A panel
discussion will follow.
