Cressing Temple Barns: Tudor Day
Experience a day of Tudor activities in the walled garden at Cressing Temple Barns.
We're celebrating the restored Tudor walled garden at Cressing Temple Barns being open to the public for 30 years.
Enjoy activities for all the family and discover demonstrations on how the Tudors cooked their food, how they made their medicines and cosmetics, dyed their clothes and kept themselves and their houses clean and free of ‘pestilence’.
And so much more.
Bring a picnic, pop into Tiptree Tea Rooms, and browse the barns for a historical day out at Cressing Temple Barns.
