Mini Museum: Fairies and Folklore at the Manor

Step into a world of Tudor legends this June at Headstone Manor. Long ago, people believed that mysterious “fair folk” and woodland spirits lived close to nature — in gardens, under trees, and near old houses like the Manor itself.
In this playful outdoor session, families will head into the gardens for a hidden house hunt before creating their own miniature folklore garden using natural materials. Along the way, we’ll explore how Tudor people used stories to explain strange sounds, missing objects, and the magic of the changing seasons.
Designed especially for under 5s and their grown-ups, Mini Museum sessions are hands-on, imaginative, and rooted in the land and history of Headstone Manor.
