Heritage Open Day: Step aboard a famous Norfolk Pleasure Wherry, built in 1905, learn about her Egyptian themed interior and experience the plush surroundings enjoyed by a wealthy Edwardian family sailing on the Broads at the beginning of the 20th Century. Discover HATHOR, the magnificent Edwardian Pleasure Wherry built in 1905 for Ethel and Helen Colman, two of the daughters of the founder of the Colman Mustard Company. Over the festival, HATHOR will be moored at the riverside staithe at How Hill, home of her interior designer, Norfolk architect Edward Boardman.

56 feet in length, and with a mast rising to 45 feet, HATHOR's fine internal sycamore panelling is extensively inlaid with Egyptian symbols and motifs.
