Monday 24 May
11am to 1pm – Newham Grange Farm: talk, walk, and cream teaDid 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
