Our first day trip of 2023 will be to Brodsworth Hall and Gardens in Doncaster. This will be a self-drive trip, and we hope some Friends will be able to offer lifts to others.

According to the English Heritage website, at Brodsworth ‘the Victorian pleasure gardens have been expertly restored to their former glory, and are the perfect place for adventures in the fresh air. The house has been gently conserved to tell the stories of the generations of people who lived and worked here.’

The entrance fee is (adults) £12.70; (65+) £11.30; English Heritage members, free. We’ll get a group discount so final cost to be advised. Payment by cash on the day.

To book - please get in touch with trips organiser Lorraine on fobs.daytrips@gmail.com by 1st March stating your name and entry category (e.g. English Heritage Member, 65+ ). Please also state whether you require a lift or if you would be willing to take others.
