This 3 day, 2 night study weekend will be based at the Ufford Park Hotel near Woodbridge. Dr James Bettley will provide an introductory lecture to participants on the country houses of Suffolk which he has recently studied for the new edition of Pevsner. The trip will feature a private visit to Helmingham by kind invitation of Lord and Lady Tollemache and also a private dinner at the home of Stephen Calloway, formerly curator of paintings at the V&A. We will also visit some additional fine country houses, including Somerlyton Hall and Otley Hall, as well as a number of local churches with interesting woodwork.  

The trip will be led by Dr Tessa Murdoch of the Victoria & Albert Museum. 

A few places are still available. Please contact the Events Secretary for details.
