KENDAL's hidden treasures will be available to visit in February.
Kendal's Mayor's Parlour, in the Town Hall, is a small space containing items of huge importance and beauty that illustrate the history of Kendal from the Domesday book onwards.
Following successful sessions for Heritage Open Day in September, Kendal Town Council has announced that the parlour is now available to visit in a further series of monthly sessions in which the council’s heritage officer Simon Unsworth will give a short talk on Kendal’s history and its development as a town of international importance through its early beginnings to the wool trade and its present incarnation.
The sessions will last between 90 to 120 minutes and will include time for questions and attendees are welcome to take photographs of most things in the room.
The sessions will take place on Wednesday February 1 at 5.30 pm, Tuesday February 7 at 10.30 am and Thursday February 9 at 2.00 pm.
