For the Little Walkers there will be an activity trail along with craft areas: Can you help Titus find his friends? Walk along the trail and spot all the brightly coloured Highland Cows, can you find them all?

For those that are intrigued by the History of Norwood Park, why not book onto a History Tour & Talk from Sir John Starkey, his family has resided at Norwood since the 1880s - learn how the estate has transformed over the years to keep up to date with modern technology and trends.
