The Armoury Through Time
About
The Mendlesham Armoury, housed over the north porch of the church for more than 500 years is the only one of its kind left in England.
The Mendlesham Armoury, housed over the north porch of the church for more than 500 years is the only one of its kind left in England.
It is amazing that it has survived for so long when others have vanished, making it vitally important to our national heritage.
The talk will take the story from 1695, when the Militia and Armoury cease to be mentioned in the Church Wardens Accounts, documenting the change of circumstances the Armoury both armour and documentary evidence has gone through in the centuries since the doors closed for the last time.
Itll bring the story right up to date with information about the Armoury Facelift Projects exciting plans for better conservation, interpretation and display of this unique heritage so it can be passed onto future generations in the best condition.All money from this talk goes towards the Mendlesham Armoury Projects.
