Tracing Your House History: Part 2

With the onset of Britain’s third covid-19 lockdown within a year, Triskele Heritage will be stepping up to try and provide some (hopefully) entertaining and informative free public talks. The weekly lockdown lectures will feature the fruits of our research so you can be sure that the content will all be bang up to date!

Each week we will host a lockdown lecture freely accessible to anyone with a web connection via Zoom. All you need to do is register via Eventbrite and – when the time for the talk rolls around – grab your favourite beverage of choice, get comfy and enjoy.

Our next event will take place at 17:00GMT on Thursday 4 March 2021 and will focus on Tracing Your House History (Part 2) – Meet the House Historians.

Booking is now available via Eventbrite.

Due to our licensing agreement with Zoom tickets for each event will be limited to 495 places. If you cannot make it after booking, please do return your ticket so that someone else can enjoy the talk instead.

Please note that this is a live event only and there will not be a recording of the talk available afterwards.

If you have a question about the event – in the first instance please see our FAQs section. The answer will almost certainly be in there.

More information on the talk

An opportunity to see three professional house historians – Melanie Backe-Hansen (A House Through Time), Karen Averby (Archangel Heritage) & Gill Blanchard (Past Search) in conversation with buildings archaeologist James Wright (Triskele Heritage).

Ever wondered how researchers approach the subject of constructing social histories of historic buildings? Ever been curious about the lives of the former occupants of your home? Ever considered how it might be possible to trace the owners of a house over time? Then this is the session for you!

This panel session is part of the Triskele Heritage Lockdown Lectures series. Although it is entitled “Tracing Your House History: Part 2” it is an entirely separate and self-contained event. There is no need to have attended Part 1.
