Description
Come and explore one of the oldest and most fascinating buildings in Norwich. Home to wealthy merchants and Mayors when Norwich was in its heyday, this beautifully preserved building dates back to 1320. See the magnificent stone-vaulted undercroft, the Tudor Great Hall and fine Georgian Dining Room. Wander through a maze of passages to discover a series of inter-linked rooms with period settings showing how people lived in the past. Visit the kitchen with its splendid displays of food and household implements. Enjoy delightful collections of historic toys, meet our costumed interpreter and find out who the Strangers were...
