A lecture on heraldry at Lincoln's Inn, given by Mark Scott, Somerset Herald at the College of Arms. It looks at the heraldry on display around the Inn, found on panels and windows in the Great Hall and Old Hall, on building exteriors and even in the Chapel windows. The talk covers historical and legal developments in heraldry, which once served practical purposes and still follows its own rules and language. A drinks reception follows the lecture, and non-members of the Inn are welcome to attend.
