About this Event
Wenham Castle is one of the oldest houses in England dating from the 13th century and is probably the earliest English building constructed largely of brick. Its importance is such that Sir Nikolaus Pevsner termed it ‘one of the incunabula of English domestic architecture’.
The visit will be led by the renowned historian and archaeologist Edward Martin.
There will also be the opportunity to visit the 13th century grade I listed St Lawrence’s Church (formerly known as All Saints Church) with its striking wall paintings of the Virgin and Child, St Margaret, St Catherine and St Mary Magdalene and St Christopher.
If you would like to extend your visit you are welcome to bring a picnic.
