Events by Year
Please select a year to view upcoming events:
This ever-popular annual event comprises a fascinating talk and tour of the College of Arms by John Petrie, Windsor Herald, who will give members the opportunity to view some of the spectacular examples of the College's work over the past 800 years. The College of Arms is the official heraldic authority for England, Wales, Northern Ireland and much of the Commonwealth including Australia and New Zealand. As well as being responsible for the granting of new coats of arms, the College maintains registers of arms, pedigrees, genealogies, Royal Licences, changes of name, and flags.
Three coats of arms associated with the Master will be on display and explained, among many others.
We will hear about the Heralds' ceremonial duties and their unique place in our history. The tour will conclude with a light buffet supper with wine at the College.
This event is particularly popular amongst new members and will be repeated on Tuesday 8th March 2022
