Experience Tudor living in Bramhall

by Lib Dem team on 20 November, 2009

Bramall Hall

 Bramall Hall will be hosting a special Tudor Living History Day on Sunday 22nd November.   People can immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of an authentic recreation of the 16th century as the Davenport family welcome you into their home.   

Visitors can find out more about traditional crafts such as spinning and carding, embroidery and the art of calligraphy. Or learn about the health properties of herbs and spices in the Still Room with Good Wife Kate.  There will be an opportunity for children to help the family cook prepare the herbs for baking and roll out the jumbles (Tudor biscuits). Or perhaps you would prefer to watch the hilarious jig puppet show in the Ballroom.

All the activities will be brought to life by a variety of costumed characters and traditional Tudor music playing throughout the Hall.  The event takes place between 11.00am and 4.00pm and there is no need to book in advance. Admission costs £4.95 for Adults and £3.50 for Concessions/Under 16s and Leisure Key.   For more information about the event, contact Bramall Hall on 0161 485 3708 or visit www.bramallhall.org.uk
