The Lyndwood Lecture is a biennial event, established in 1996, and organised alternately by the Ecclesiastical Law Society and the Canon Law Society of Great Britain and Ireland, who are organizing the event this year. The lecture takes its name from William Lyndwood (1375-1446), sometime bishop of St David’s, a distinguished diplomat and canonist, most noted for the publication of the Provinciale, an early authoritative commentary on canon law.
The lecture will take place at St Mary Moorfield’s Church, Eldon Street, London, and will be followed by a drinks reception.
The lecture is open to all, and there will be a £15 charge to defray expenses. Please register and pay using the form below (bookings will close if the venue capacity is reached, or at 5pm on 7 October).
