Welcome the spring with a pre-Easter tour of 'Britain’s finest half-timbered house'. The house will be decorated with local spring flowers and foliage, and handmade, luxury Melt Chocolates will be served with tea/coffee after the tour.
Pitchford Hall was owned by the Colthurst family for more than 500 years before being sold in 1992. Now on the ‘at Risk’ register, the house has been bought back by Rowena Colthurst and her husband, who are embarking on the massive task of saving it, following 25 years of neglect. The house is named after a natural pitch well in the grounds. Prince Rupert hid from the Roundheads in the priest-hole here during the Civil War and Princess (later Queen) Victoria played in the Tudor-style treehouse.
The tour includes the main rooms on the ground floor including the great hall and drawing room. Also the Priest Hole Room and Princess Victoria Room. We sometimes include the Victorian kitchen, unrestored Victorian wing and the General’s Quarters (west wing) and the attic in the tour. Refreshments will be served in the Pitchford Orangery & Walled Garden.
Tickets £27.50 including tea/coffee and Melt chocolates
