The Story of Our Barn

On a summer evening, join our Community Events Coordinator, Ceara, to find out about the turbulent 1300s and what was happening in England, and more locally, at the time the Barn was being built.
Hear the fascinating story of how this historic site was almost lost, how and why it was saved, and how it is used today.

Who was Thomas de Bradeston and why did he build Winterbourne Medieval Barn?
How was it built? Why was it so important then and now?
What are the links between The Barn and St. Michael's Church?

Come and find out the answers to these questions, and more, at this talk about the history of this amazing heritage site: from medieval to modern!
Includes an illustrated talk on the history of The Barn (past & present), with interesting features pointed out and discussed, plus plenty of time to look around. Our friendly volunteers will be on hand to answer questions.

Volunteer Gill will also take you round St Michael's church and talk about the wall paintings and monuments in there which are linked with Thomas de Bradeston.

Barn and bar open from 6.30pm. Free parking on site.
Book online at Ticketsource or via the Barn website.
