Step back nearly 500 years to meet some 200 Tudors, Gentry and lesser sorts alike going about their everyday lives when Henry VIII was King.  

See the Sixteenth Century brought to life by 200 of Kentwell's skilled living-history specialists in a fully interactive event, spread throughout the buildings, gardens, farm and woods of this most beautiful moated Tudor house.  See crafts and cooking, music and dancing and a whole community's everyday life. Find yourself  travelled back in time to the year 1535.  Spend a whole day lost in the sights, sounds and smells of the Sixteenth Century, at Kentwell.  

The site is extensive. Though guided by a map visitors may be surprised at what they come across. Entry to the event also includes entry to the House, and to acres of beautiful family-friendly country house gardens and parkland.  

There is so much to see and do.  All activities will continue whatever the weather.

Admissions on the door cost £2 extra.
