Kathleen Hughes Lecture – ‘Warning: May Contain Saints. Place-Names as Evidence for the Church in Early Wales’

Hughes Hall in conjunction with the Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic invites you to the seventeenth Kathleen Hughes Memorial Lecture, ‘Warning: May Contain Saints. Place-Names as Evidence for the Church in Early Wales’ given by Dr David Parsons, Centre for Advanced Welsh & Celtic Studies, University of Wales.

In 2000, as a result of an anonymous benefaction, Hughes Hall instituted an annual lecture to be given in the Easter Term in memory of Dr Kathleen Hughes, who at her death in 1977 was a Reader in Celtic Studies in the Department of Anglo Saxon, Norse and Celtic. Her special field was the early Irish Church but the lecture series has ranged over a wide field of early medieval studies.

Everyone is welcome to attend this free event.
