Britain's What's On Event Guide
Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse
Heritage Open Day: Discover Norfolk’s rural history over 50 acres of glorious countryside, from the traditional working farm to the lives of the residents of the Victorian workhouse. Step back in time at this fascinating historical site, where you can uncover what life was like for some of Norfolk’s poorest people in a Victorian workhouse. Originally opened in 1777 as a House of Industry, Gressenhall’s collections and interactive displays bring to life the real stories of workhouse staff and inmates - how they ate, slept, worked, and played through the ages.
This event coincides with the 50th Anniversary of the Friends of Gressenhall Museum.
