This year, celebrate the unseen people who ran Mompesson House behind the scenes.
Find out what life was like for the people who worked behind the scenes at Mompesson House, from the servants of the eighteenth century to the housekeeper and gardener in the 1950s. We'll have information available in each room with details of servants' lives throughout the years. Dress up in an apron and try your hand at laying the Dining Room table for Elizabeth Mompesson’s grand dinner party. Perfect for the young and the young at heart.
This event is free, but normal admission charges apply for the venue.
