Tudor Hands on History Days at Kentwell Hall

About

Visit the manor lost in time - step back to the year 1535, where you will find out that history is anything but boring!
Meet soldiers, surgeons, merchants, and silk workers on the front lawn… cooks, housekeepers, washerwomen, gentry, and minstrels in the house… join in with brewing, and butter, cheese, and bread making in the pavilion… make lotions, potions, and remedies in the still room… meet taverners and painters in the alehouse… animals in the stables… and low life in the hovel.
What's more, there will be stitching, gardening, basketmaking, archery, smithery, pottery, glass blowing… lessons in the schoolhouse… woodmen and builders… spinners and weavers… dyers and felt makers…
Get lost in the sights, sounds, and smells of the sixteenth century, here at Kentwell Hall. Meet a whole community going about their everyday life, as if you have really travelled back in time to 1535.
Kentwell's skilled living-history experts provide a fun, engaging, and interactive experience, with activities spread throughout the house, gardens, farm, and woodlands.
You're more than a visitor, you're part of the event!
