bSMGP AUTUMN CONFERENCE WEEKEND 2007 LINCOLN 
The conference in Lincoln  redresses the imbalance of recent years by returning in greater  depth to the  mediaeval.  Lincoln  cathedral can  claim  to  hold  the  second  most  important  th  13  century glass in the country. On the Society's last visit, the Dean's Eye, taken out in  1988,  was  on  the  bench.  It  was  reinstalled  last  year  and  the  story  will  be  told  in  the  th  th  cathedral workshops. There is also a wealth of 19  and 20  century glass in the cathedral  and in other churches within walking distance and plenty of time will be allowed.  On Saturday we travel south to Stamford and Tattershall and a cluster of churches around  th  Sleaford. The 15  century Browne's hospital in Stamford alone could hold our attention  but  there  is  also  St.  George  Garter  quarries,  Wailes,  Hugh  Arnold  and  Clayton  &  Bell.  Tattershall has splendid mediaeval glass in the East window and there is more at Heydour  and  Carlton  Scroop.  Nearby  Grantham  boasts  impressive  St.  Wulfram  with  19thC  and  20thC  glass  Ruskington  BurneJones,  Silk  Willoughby  Whall,  Sleaford  Hardman,  Holland of Warwick, Ward & Hughes, O'Connor, Morris & Co, Kempe, Burlison & Grylls  and Woodward.  Sunday, we head north to Hackthorn  Holiday,  Brocklesby   the most engaging mediaeval  glass in the county,  Redbourne  William Collins,  Messingham  a fascinating miscellany  of glass dating from the late 13thC to the mid 16thC  Morton, and Brant Broughton  a  major collection of work by the prolific rector, FH Sutton (also seen in the cathedral).  En route we shall see new work by BSMGP Associate Glenn Carter.

The University of Lincoln is the country's newest purposebuilt university, the campus and  Conference centre having a waterfront setting and spectacular views. It is a fifteen minute  walk to the City Centre. Registration is from 2pm on Thursday and supper at 7pm before  the  introductory  evening  lecture.  Friday  will  be  spent  largely  in  the  cathedral  and  its  workshops followed by another evening lecture. Saturday and Sunday are coach excursion  days  returning  at  about  5.30.  The  Conference  Dinner  is  on  Saturday  and  the  weekend  finishes  with  members'  slides  and  a  discussion  on  photography.  Last  year  the  interest  shown in this by non practising members is a reminder to artists to bring their work and  an encouragement to everyone to stay on the extra Sunday night.
