Coronavirus (COVID-19)

If you are planning on travelling distance to attractions, we would recommend that you contact the venues directly in advance to avoid disappointment.

If you, or any of your party have a new persistant cough, or develop a fever of 38C, we would instead advise you to use the NHS's dedicated website for professional advice.

Walcot Hall

Historic home of Lord Clive of India who commissioned Sir William Chambers to redesign the house and stable block in 1763. It has been slightly reduced in size to suit present-day requirements, but its aspect remains a perfect Georgian elevation, with parapet walls and sash windows. Clive's son Edward added a free-standing ballroom around 1800 which is now used for weddings, concerts and parties. He was much interested in gardening and arborculture and 30-acres have been developed into an Arboretum with winding walks and containing magnificent specimens of trees.
