About This Event

Clare Jackson delivers a lecture exploring the role of St George’s Chapel amid the political and religious turmoil of the seventeenth century. The talk situates the chapel at the very centre of that era’s upheavals, examining its significance across the English Civil War, the Interregnum, and the Restoration. Attendees will gain insight into how this sacred space bore witness to shifting allegiances and profound ideological conflict. The event takes place on Tuesday the twentieth of October 2026 at seven o’clock in the evening, within the chapel itself in Windsor. Admission is free of charge.

Speaker Clare Jackson will contextualise the significance of St George’s Chapel in the turbulent politics and religion of the 17th century.

The 26th annual Maurice and Shelagh Bond Memorial Lecture will be held in the nave of St George's Chapel on Wednesday 4 November 2026. The lecture begins at 7pm and will last approximately one hour. Doors open at 6:30pm.

Please note the date was originally advertised as 20 October and has now been changed.

The speaker will be Clare Jackson, Honorary Professor of Early Modern History at the University of Cambridge. Clare is the author of Devil-Land: England Under Siege 1588-1688 (2021), which won the 2022 Wolfson History Prize; her most recent book is The Mirror of Great Britain: A Life of James VI & I (2025). In this year's Bond lecture, Clare will contextualise the significance of St George’s Chapel in the turbulent politics and religion of the seventeenth century.

Admission is free but by named ticket only. Please bring your ticket and photo ID with you.
