Saturday 14th October looks to be a lovely day, like the ones we have been having recently, The Friends' charity stall will be the last one this year due to the curtailing of the City of Rochester Society's Craft Fair by the council, which mean we have lost 4 days of trading close to Christmas. This results in a loss in the region £400 in stall takings.
So please come along to our stall on Saturday 14th and buy some Christmas presents. We expect to be somewhere opposite the Eagle Tavern. Your support is gratefully appreciated. Sue Haydock, Chairman New specialist Perspex screens with interpretation have been installed in the wall paintings room on the second floor, and the barrier removed. Visitors will be able to see the detail of the incredible 16th century mural, which had not seen the light of day for more than 400 years, for the first time since they were discovered during the house renovations in 2017. Also, above the fireplace is an image of the 'Worthies' wall painting found on the third floor. The third floor is not accessible by the public so this is your chance to see what all the fuss is about! The installation of the new screens has been made possible with a very generous donation from the Friends of Eastgate House. Thank you for your support which has made this possible. Do go along and take a look!  |
