Constance Howard was a much loved figure who is sadly missed.
Sally Saunders was one of her students and, in her article The Groovy Chick with the Green Hair,

possibly her last, for Wrotham Church, Kent.

It is not often that we give front page prominence to Products but we were so impressed

With many more articles, news, and reviews of books, exhibitions and products
