Langdon Mallet Making Workshop

Join our expert tutors for a hands-on day of traditional craft and woodland skills. You’ll learn the techniques and tools needed to make your very own wooden mallet, which you’ll get to take home and keep.

Once your mallet is complete, you can put it to use, splitting wood for a campfire, before gathering together to share a communal soup for lunch around the fire! (Please let us know of any dietary requirements upon booking)

In the afternoon, develop your skills further with a choice of whittling projects, guided by our tutors, and leave with both new knowledge and handcrafted creations of your own.

This event is for adults only.
