Birmingham: Peplow Memorial Lecture

Peplow Memorial Lecture

William Augustus Peplow was a successful business man from the Black Country and descended from a long line of clockmakers. He had a keen interest in Heraldry, which he helped develop in the society, also making authoritative surveys of the hatchments of Worcestershire. He later became President of the Worcester Archaeological Society and a Fellow of the Society of Antquaries. After his demise in 1983 this annual lecture was set up in his memory.
