Start time: 18:30 Sue Jackson tells how the French Huguenots brought their innovative skills to late C17th England. They came to late 17th century England in huge numbers, bringing a wide variety of skills – as silk weavers, silversmiths, clock makers, opticians, bankers, gilders, ironworkers and horticulturists. Names such as Paul de Lamerie, Samuel Courtauld and Jean Tijou spring to mind. In virtually all areas they were innovators, and more advanced than the English, who were forced to improve their skills or go out of business. Although they mainly stayed in London, others settled in East Anglia, Macclesfield and Canterbury. We look at their cultural legacy.
