Dressing up clothes

Pop upstairs to the bedroom and discover our new replica 18th century costumes. Created by one of our talented volunteers, these costumes are just calling out to be tried on.

Try them all on and see which costume you prefer. Just remember to hang the clothes back up for the next family to enjoy.
