Christmas from a bygone era

10:48am Saturday 4th December 2010



VISITORS to Beningbrough Hall near York will be greeted by scenes of Christmas from bygone days over the coming weeks.


Every Saturday and Sunday throughout December, Beningbrough Hall and Garden, near York, will be offering a Christmas experience with an historical feel, featuring our Georgian and Victorian past. On arrival, visitors will receive a Christmas Calling Card – a Georgian invitation.


They will be welcomed for light refreshments in the Great Hall which will be decorated with Georgian greenery. They can then walk through the mansion where preparations are being made for a Georgian feast in the dining room. It is here they can meet Sir John Bourchier himself and enjoy Georgian dancing and music in the saloon.
