An illustrated talk by local historian, author (Alice in Waterland and Alice’s Oxford on Foot), and Lewis Carroll Society trustee Local Oxford historian, Mark Davies on a very special day for both the fictional and the real Alice (the daughter of the Dean of Christ Church).
As well as explaining the relevance of this day, Mark will reveal the real people, places and events which inspired the Alice books, and highlight Lewis Carroll’s less well-known connections with local institutions such as Lucy’s Iron Foundry, St John’s College, and a floating chapel on the Oxford Canal.
