Calverley: Old Hall Public Opening

After nearly three years of renovation work thanks to £1.6m from the National Lottery, the Old Hall. Woodhall Road, is ready to re-open both as a holiday let for ten and community space. Before the paying guests start to arrive in the autumn, The Landmark Trust is inviting locals to have a look around it all and take part in a number of activities to celebrate the completion of the works. These activities include:

• Drop in to the Community Space during the day to have a go at weaving. Many of the past residents of Calverley Old Hall made their living through textile work, so visitors can have a go at making their own small woven craft to take away with you
• Musicians from Leeds Waits will be performing around the building, playing traditional music on traditional instruments
• Re-enactors Frei Compagnie will set up their medieval camp, where you can meet soldiers, cooks and craftspeople and get a glimpse into medieval life at Calverley

Entry to the open day is free, but booking is essential via this link.
