Guided tour of the six historic rooms of the Hall that are furnished with seventeenth century furniture and artifacts. The rooms are the Great Hall, Judge Thomas Fell's study, Judge Thomas and Margaret Fell's bedrooms, George Fox room, attic room.
A taped commentary tells you of the history of the Hall and why it is so important to establishment of Quakerism in the seventeenth century.
The tape takes 45 minutes and allows you to relax and do the tour in your own time. You can switch off and examine the rooms and the detail of the items there, at your leisure.
Tea and biscuits is often available for a donation afterwards, and there is someone to talk to or ask questions about the tour.
The Hall's gardens and wildlife grounds are open all year to explore or just to sit in and relax.
