About this Event
A guided tour of selected buildings on the OU Walton Hall campus, focusing on the history of the estate and who the University Buildings are named after. The tour will include a visit to St Michael's Church and churchyard, as well as the University's legacy garden - on the site of the original walled garden of the Estate.
Tours will start from the Tree of Learning art installation in the atrium of the Betty Boothroyd Library (pictured below) and will last between 45 minutes and an hour.
Tours will be taking place on Wednesday 11th, Thursday 12th and Friday 13th September. The tours will be identical in content - please only book places on one tour.
As well as the tours, there will also be special displays in the Betty Boothroyd Library created for the Heritage Open Days - in the atrium, the Archive Research Room and the Library Presentation Room between 12noon and 1600. Learn more about the history of the Walton Hall estate and view some of the University's archive materials. Booking is not required to visit the displays.
