MANORS MAKETH MAN EXHIBITION

Hereford Cathedral Library & Archives team have unveiled their latest Manors Maketh Man Exhibition within the Mappa Mundi & Chained Library Exhibition which explores Hereford Cathedral’s Manors in the Middle Ages and Beyond. Hereford Cathedral’s main source of income previously came from manors, and preserved in the Cathedral Archives is a treasure trove of manorial records that are only just beginning to be explored. Manors Maketh Man delves into these records, from medieval times onwards, and presents some of the fascinating human stories found within them. The manor in England and Wales touched the lives of people of all walks of life, from before the Norman Conquest to the twentieth century. The records it produced are a fantastic but underused source for understanding the lives of ordinary people. This exhibition looks at what a manor was, what records can tell us about land, family, community, law and order, and life and death in Herefordshire over the centuries. One of the pieces within the exhibition is the cathedral’s oldest book, the Hereford Gospels, which written around the year 800. It also includes records added in the first half of the 11th century confirming the rights of an unnamed woman to grant land to […]

Borderlines Film Festival introduces new B2 Festival to Hereford City This autumn, Borderlines Film Festival launches a brand-new film festival skewed towards younger audiences. The B2 Film Festival will run from Thursday 18 to Sunday 21 October at six venues across Hereford City. Blending art forms and blurring formats, B2 offers a multisensory cinema experience that is fresh, interactive, appealing and accessible. It will take film out of the cinema auditorium and put it into unexpected places. The Atrium of Maylord Shopping Centre will be the setting for a screening of the 2004 remake of the George A Romero classic Dawn of the Dead, set in a shopping mall where the citizens of a town have gathered for protection from a horde of flesh-eating zombies. In the hands of the ever-inventive MASH Cinema, the event is guaranteed to include elements that will ramp up the blood-curdling. A triple bill of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg’s popular Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World’s End) stretches late into Friday night at the Left Bank, while there’s more cult musical comedy at the venue on Saturday 20 with John Waters’ Cry-Baby, starring a young, kiss-curled rebel […]

Ian Anderson plays the Christmas Jethro Tull

Rock legend, Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull, will be performing The Christmas Jethro Tull concert in Hereford Cathedral at 7.30 pm on Tuesday 18 December. Over the last ten years, Ian Anderson has performed in many of the great cathedrals and churches in the UK helping to raise much-needed funds for their preservation. Usually based on a Christmas-themed concert, he features prominently the work of Jethro Tull as written and recorded by Ian since 1968. Added to this are several pieces of re-worked Classical repertoire and traditional pieces from the musical liturgy of the Church of England. Ian Anderson says of the show, “Whether your Christmas is a secular affair of gift-giving and family togetherness or a more worshipful recognition of one of the two biggest days in the Christian calendar, join us for some uplifting Christmas spirit, music, readings and maybe even a prayer or two.” “100% of the sales of tickets go to the upkeep of the buildings and, perhaps, also in support of the musical liturgy of the cathedral. I try to balance the festive time of year in song with a few of the elements of an old-fashioned carol service. All delivered with good humour and […]
