Heritage Open Day: On Sunday 21 September Kirkham House will be open for the 2025 Heritage Open Days Festival from 1100-1600. House stewards from Paignton Heritage Society will be on hand to give more information and run house tours. This well-preserved late medieval house, built of local stone, lies near the centre of the Devon town of Paignton. It probably belonged to a well-to-do landowning or merchant family, and had a grand hall with space for up to 20 people to dine together. The house now contains modern furniture, illustrating traditional craftsmanship and the original use of the rooms.
