Britain's What's On Event Guide
Bateman's
Heritage Open Day: Discover Bateman's, the home of the internationally famous writer Rudyard Kipling. Autumn is the perfect time for a leisurely stroll around the inspiring home of the writer, Rudyard Kipling. Bateman's sits nestled in the peaceful landscape of the Sussex Weald. Enter this Jacobean house and see his original writing desk. Admire the Lily pond and Rose garden, designed by Kipling himself. Follow the meandering path along the River Dudwell, through the wildflower meadow to the 17th-century working watermill.
