Reading Abbey and Reading School
Presented by Lindsay and John Mullaney
What is Reading School’s connection to Reading Abbey and is it really 900 years old? Is there evidence to suggest it could be even older?
Join local historians John and Lindsay Mullaney for the first of three special 900th Anniversary lectures marking Reading School’s historic milestone. They will take the audience on a fascinating journey looking at the evidence of its earliest existence, and its later development up to the time of Henry VII - while answering the questions of why, where and when Reading Abbey was founded.
Lindsay Mullaney holds a BA in French/Italian and an MA in Applied Linguistics, both from the University of Reading. John Mullaney holds a degree in Philosophy and Theology from the Marianum Faculty of the Pontifical University in Rome, a BA in History and Italian and an MA in Education, both from Reading.
Date: Tuesday 16th September
Time: 15:30 – 16:30
Venue: Big School, Reading School
