Sir John Lloyd Lecture: Brychan Fact And Fiction
Theatr Brycheiniog
Spoken Word | DarlithiauBrycheiniog, the ancient Welsh name for Breconshire, took its name from a person called Brychan. This begs an obvious question: who was Brychan?In the early Middle Ages, churchmen were ruminating on the life and times of Brychan.This medieval process of rumination produced a series of documents, in Latin and in Welsh, concerning the ‘Matter of Brycheiniog’, which purport to tell the life of Brychan and explain the origins of his kingdom and its churches.This lecture will trace the history of Brycheiniog from the earliest Middle Ages through to the Norman conquest.It will contextualise the genesis of the Brychan legends as well as the famous lists of his saintly progeny.Perhaps, in the end, we might even steal a glance at the ‘real’ Brychan.

A Short History of Flowers: The Stories That Make Our Gardens
Theatr Brycheiniog
This lecture includes tales of exploration, unrequited but also enduring love, botanical piracy and excessive hybridisation bringing these beautiful flowers to life. From the flamboyant bougainvillea, collected in Rio de Janeiro by an 18th century female botanist in disguise to the deliciously scented stock which made a journey across France bearable for a 19th century traveller. These flowers have played pivotal roles in our societies across the world, from boom to bust economies, the Fuchsia hedgerows of Ireland as well as making bold fashion statements, these unassuming blooms hold treasure troves of stories. The lecture is based on Advolly’s upcoming book, A Short History of Flowers to be published in February 2024 with specially commissioned artworks from award-winning botanical illustrator Sarah Jane Humphrey.
About the speaker
Advolly Richmond is a garden historian, TV and radio presenter and independent researcher in gardens, landscapes, plants and social history.
