The Church of Ireland Historical Society is pleased to announce that it will host its winter conference in a virtual format. It will be held on Saturday, 7 November 2020 and both members and day participants can hear our fantastic four speakers via Zoom Video Conferencing. As always, the first paper will start at 11am, plenty of time to grab your morning tea or coffee and relax from the comfort of your couch!

Confirmed speakers are Prof. Dáibhí Ó Cróinín (NUI Galway), Dr Clodagh Tait (Mary Immaculate College, Limerick), and Dr Aoife Bhreatnach (independent). The research paper will be delivered by Mr Noel Lindsay, who is pursuing his PhD at Mary Immaculate College, Limerick.
