August Bank Holiday Fun – Sunday 25th and Monday 26th August
The Hand’s on History team will be back with their fun medieval activities this August Bank Holiday from 12noon – 4pm.
Families are invited to try their hand at three medieval activities including mini crossbows, tug of war and leatherworking.
Mini crossbows – Aimed at younger children these easy to use, small, wooden crossbows are surprisingly popular with all ages. Shooting safety darts tipped with rubber suction cups young warriors can aim at the castle target with its guarding soldiers or the targets of knights on horseback.
Tug of war – Test your strength on the Hands on History Tug of War Machine, either individually or as a family team.
THE MAIZE MAZE
With an extra mini maze for smaller children, the Maize Maze is now open.
All above Events (except Leatherworking) are FREE – normal Garden ticket admission prices apply (see Notes to editors for garden ticket prices).
