The Churches Conservation Trust is delighted to invite colleagues from Knowledge Quarter organisations to a lecture on the discovery of a rare 15th century Rose Brass. Hear from Rachel Morley as she discusses where her search for the brass took her and how, after more than 30 years in hiding, it was returned back home in St Mary’s Church, Edlesborough.
Rose Brasses are engraved plaques fitted in church floors. While these symbols of the Virgin Mary were common features in medieval English churches, today only a few have survived. This makes the discovery of the Edlesborough Rose Brass unusual and exciting.
Please email Jenny Ringo, Membership Manager at jringo@thecct.org.uk to reserve a place.
