Britain's What's On Event Guide
Grasmere rushbearing display at National Trust Allan Bank
Heritage Open Day: Learn about the medieval tradition of rushbearing in Grasmere, with a collection of unique items used in the annual village pageant, on display for the first time at Allan Bank. Once home to William Wordsworth and National Trust founder Canon Rawnsley, Allan Bank isn’t a typical National Trust experience. The historic villa combines a small, informal art gallery with a giant indoor mural space - a place for artists to explore nature. Self serve tea and coffee are available for a small donation. The welcoming village of Grasmere is nestled with its two picturesque lakes against a dramatic backdrop of Lake District fells. It's the perfect place to come explore, relax, reflect and be inspired by the views, just as William Wordsworth was.
