We hear so much about the wonderful works of Brunel and others but

KELMSCOTT, the Summer Home of William
Morris- A TVN Study Day
Thursday 28th April and 4th August 2016
at Kelmscott Manor, Nr Lechlade, Oxfordshire.
Kelmscott Manor is a limestone manor house in the Cotswold village of
Kelmscott, near Lechlade. It dates from around 1570, with a late
17th-century wing, and is a Grade I listed building. The house -
perhaps the most evocative of all the houses associated with Morris -
contains an outstanding collection of the possessions and works of
Morris, his family and his Arts & Crafts associates, including
furniture, original textiles, pictures, carpets, ceramics and metalwork.
The study day will take the form of lectures and a guided tour of
house, garden and the village.
The speaker will be Dr. Kathy Haslam, curator and specialist in Morris
and the Arts & Crafts Movement. She’s held curatorial posts at
the V&A, Tullie House Museum in Cardiff as well as the Geffrye
Museum in London. These were followed by 5 years as curator at
Blackwell Arts & Crafts House in Cumbria after which she took
up her post at Kelmscott.
