Keeping History Alive in London's Secret Riverside Villages
Mayflower 400 Christopher Jones Lectures
Commemorating the voyage of 1620 and the life of her Rotherhithe-based master
ONE
Five illustrated talks commemorating the historic sailing to the New World of 1620, and the life of the Mayflower's Rotherhithe-based master.
The evenings can be enjoyed individually or as part of the series and take place at Canada Water Theatre in Rotherhithe, the home port and final resting place of the ship and her master.
Christopher Jones moved to Rotherhithe in 1611 and lived there for the rest of his days. Several of his children were born in the parish, and he was buried at St Mary’s Church on 5th March 1622.
Organised by the Rotherhithe & Bermondsey Local History Society but open to everyone at only £3.75 each, including a glass of wine at the interval.
An unmissable opportunity to discover the Mayflower’s secrets, background, voyage and legacy, and to compare the themes and issues of 400 years ago with those of the world today.
