Discover the wonder and beauty of the walled gardens, just as Mary Lennox once did at Misselthwaite Manor

About

Summer is a very special time at Charlton House. The days are warm and long, the birds and bees that live on the roof are busy filling the air with music, and the flowers are all out in their splendour. Join the Charlton House Explorer team in this workshop and discover the wonder and beauty of the walled gardens, just as Mary Lennox once did at Misselthwaite Manor.

Charlton House Explorers run every Tuesday of the school summer holidays. Anytime between 10:00am - 12 noon each Tuesday morning, your children aged 5-12 can drop in to Charlton House for crafts, storytelling, games, and more fun based on Royal Greenwich’s history. All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the sessions.
