It has had a massive makeover from the big new car park, through the plush entrance shop to the local history, farm and natural history exhibits and activities.
There are a couple of walk/talk/cream tea events coming up over the next couple of weeks as part of Local History Month.
Tuesday - 11am to 1pm – Newham Grange Farm: talk, walk, and cream tea
Did you know Newham Grange Farm was mentioned in the Domesday Book (1086 AD)? Records show this area of Cleveland has been farmed for over 900 years, and we know that the Hopper family worked the land at Newham Grange since 1580. To celebrate History Month, we’re offering a talk and walk showing the history of the farm, a presentation from artist Carol Newmarch, and a cream tea to finish (fruit scone with clotted cream and preserve, and a cup of tea).
Cost: £6.50
Book: for more information and to book, visit the Newham Grange website - Events
Feedback from last week -
"It was a glorious morning for the Local History Month event, and the participants were all very vocal about how much they'd enjoyed it, and how interesting it was. For some it was their first time to the farm, and they loved it, others said it made them see things at the farm that they hadn’t noticed before. All were keen to know about future events and workshops."
