SUITABLE FOR

Adults

Discover the fascinating history of Eltham Palace, once grander than Hampton Court with its 1,300 acres of hunting parks. This royal nursery for Henry VIII and his two sisters has a rich past that we'll explore in detail.

Join us as we journey through the palace's heyday, uncover the reasons behind its decline, and celebrate its remarkable recovery and restoration. We'll also marvel at the superb features of the Great Hall, including its stunning hammerbeam roof.

Don't miss this opportunity to delve into the captivating story of Eltham Palace and its architectural splendour!
