Killyleagh Castle
To those who claim social or political authority by virtue of hereditary right, the study of ancestry is not a hobby but a passport to power. While histories of architecture typically focus on novelty, this lecture will explore the opposite: how ancestry and the past were expressed in houses from the Restoration to the Regency.
John Goodall is a vice-president of the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society and architectural editor of Country Life, he is one of the leading architectural historians writing today.
Refreshments : 6:30 - 7:00pm. Lecture to start at 7: 00pm in The Boardroom at Clifton House 2 North Queen Street Belfast BT15 1ES
Please note there is free parking and the building is fully accessible.
