Charting Chipeling is a community archaeology project focused on Kiplin Hall in North Yorkshire. This lecture will present the results of the historic buildings analysis portion of the project and attempt to unravel the fascinating story of a post-medieval rural estate. Of early seventeenth-century origins, the Hall still preserves much of its original Jacobean character. It has belonged to four families whose antecedents include King John, James I, and Charleses I and II.
Visitors welcome. A small donation is invited.
Refreshments are available in reception from 6.45pm
