About this Event
This year we have the pleasure of hearing from Professor Sarah Palmer on ‘Overawed and Controlled’? London’s Maritime Workforce in the 19th Century. More details to follow.
The Proctor lecture forms part of the Kings' Seminars series of lectures, but is usually held at Lloyd’s Register as a very special event within our calendar. After the lecture we welcome all attendees to join us for conversation, wine and nibbles!
The Annual Proctor Memorial Lecture celebrates the great contribution of David Proctor to maritime history both in Britain and internationally. Fittingly, the distinguished scholars invited to present the lecture alternate between UK and international lecturers.
Join us in the historic Lloyd's Register Building, and experience the rich history the building has to offer.
Registration
Registration is essential to help ensure that people who have signed up want to come on the night (we usually have a large waiting list for this popular event so want to avoid ‘no shows’ where possible).
Registration from 16:45, with the lecture starting at 17.15. Following the lecture, guests are invited to join BCMH for a drinks reception on the General Committee Landing until 19:45.
Please note, there is a small charge to join this in person event, this is to help the BCMH toward supporting lecture and seminar series.

General Admission (in person): £10
