Friends of Erddig

Why do we need a Friends of Erddig group?

Local people who use the estate on a daily basis told us they'd like to be involved and to meet others interested in maintaining Erddig for many years to come. They also wanted to know the names and faces of the National Trust team who they see on the estate every day.
