Medieval Coventry

Conference

Held at the Old Grammar School and St Mary’s Hall

Over 100 people attended our highly successful conference held on 29th September 2017.

Eleven senior academics from across the UK and further afield provided papers with original research on themes relating to medieval Coventry. For a copy of the programme, click here.

Key medieval documents like the Charter of Incorporation, the weaver’s pageant and the Leet Book were on display.

The proceedings were recorded on video, available here. We hope to publish a volume of the proceedings in 2018.

‘Very good input! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Thank you so much for putting it on.’

‘Great day! So many experts in one room! Very interesting indeed.’

‘Well organised – enthusiastic audience and speakers – resourceful presentation.’
