Thirteenth IMA Conference on
THE MATHEMATICS OF SURFACES
7th - 9th September 2009
Conference Location
The meeting will be held in the King's Manor in the historic centre of York. The manor is one of York's most important and attractive buildings. The manor was originally the Abbots House for St Mary's Abbey and dates back to 1291. Following the Dissolution of the monasteries, it was retained by the Crown and allocated to the Council of the North. It became the official residence of the President of the Council in 1561 and was gradually enlarged and extended during the reign of Elizabeth I. Henry VIII and Catherine Howard stayed in the manor, and it was used as a residence by the Stuarts on their journeys between London and Edinburgh.
The workshop will be held in the Huntingdon Room which contains an impressive plaster frieze with the arms of Henry Hastings, Earl of Huntingdon.The decorative doorway at the main entrance is Jacobean and depicts the Royal Arms.
