About This Event

On 13 September 2026, Heritage Open Day introductory talks will take place at Owletts in Rochester. Various speakers will deliver free short talks on the history of Sir Herbert Baker at his birthplace. The collection and many rooms within the venue bear the hallmarks of Sir Herbert's influence. Admission is required for attendees to join these workshops.

The talks will cover the history of Sir Herbert Baker at his birthplace, Owletts, and how his relationship with fellow architect Edward Lutyens influenced many of his designs in India. The relationship between the two architects soured, and the talks will also cover the circumstances surrounding this. Additionally, the talks will explore Baker's connection with the Bank of England and how the changes he made to Sir John Sloane's original building damaged his reputation.

The speakers will deliver the talks, but their names are not specified.
