Daily life with Georgians – a free talk by historian Peter Ross

In a happy combination of anniversaries of great Georgians, St Martin’s is celebrating both the 250th of Jane Austen’s birth and the 200th of its own glorious Georgian nave. As well as a stage adaption of ‘Pride & Prejudice’ another of the events in a celebratory weekend is a talk by historian Peter Ross exploring the domestic lives of the Georgians. In ‘Dining with James & Jane: Eating at home with the Georgians’ he unites Jane Austen with Norfolk clergyman James Woodforde to illustrate the often little-known daily lives of those who bridged the 18th and 19th centuries.
