Kentwell's Through the Ages History Festival

About

Spend a whole day immersed in history at Kentwell and travel through time.

Kentwell Through The Ages showcases aspects of everyday life from many different times in history in pockets across the house and grounds.

Kentwell's re-enactors are not actors, they are expert Living Historians, many with decades of experience and expertise in their chosen periods.

Visitors are encouraged to listen, question, help with tasks and take part in some of the activities. With the freedom to go anywhere, visitors can take as much or as little time as they choose in any era.

Only at Kentwell can you see over 2,000 years of history in one day. You can travel from the Stone Age to the 1970s, with each period in its own setting, all properly equipped and costumed, with activities appropriate to each era.

Come as you are - or dress up in the historical era of your choice.

The ultimate day of History Time Travel!
