Dr John Rignall gave a fascinating explanation of the four elements in his lecture title.

This year's Adams lecture was 18 months in the making and focused on music at Arbury in Mr Gilfil's Love Story 

The final session consisted of two speakers, Simon Sargent and John Burton. Simon gave a fascinating talk on the Cash family from Coventry.

The day was rounded off beautifully with a selection of stimulating folk songs performed by Daisybell.

Our second speaker was Jonathan Ouvry, great-great-grandson of George Henry Lewes and former president of the Fellowship

The first speaker was Dr John Rignall, president of the George Eliot Fellowship and author of several books on local history.

Members of the George Eliot Fellowship will be used to reading about this plan which has filled Newsletter space since 2012, and might even now seem a bit tedious.
