Faringdon & District U3a Meeting On 11th March ’21

4/2/2021

 
The meeting will be held on Zoom on Thursday 11th March at 2.30pm.  Link details of the meeting will be sent in advance if you are a U3A member.  Follow the screen instructions to attend the meeting. The speaker is Dr Richard Fisher.  His topic is Three Choirs and a Reformation: The Cathedrals of Hereford, Gloucester and Worcester under Henry VIII.

The survival of the cathedrals through the turbulent years of Henry VIII’s reign is one of the anomalous features of his peculiarly English version of a reformed church.  Despite his determination to dissolve all the monastic foundations across the nation Henry inaugurated six new cathedrals in former large abbey churches.  What happened in three cities in the west of England?  Dr Fisher now teaches medieval art-history at Bristol University will explore this topic.
