Next Meeting

Speakers

The next meeting of the Northumbria Club will be the Dinner on 9.10.24 at 18.00.  The meeting will take place at the Army & Navy Club, 36 Pall Mall.  After dinner, there will be an illustrated talk by Christopher Hunwick, the archivist at Alnwick Castle and Syon House.  Given the scale of the Percy archives, there is a vast range of possible topics but Mr Hunwick proposes to concentrate on some aspects of the Percys in the Wars of the Roses, tying in with a book recently published by the Duke and with a current exhibition at Alnwick.  Full details will be sent to members in due course.
