Chinese New Year Open Day

Pop into the Back to Backs to get a taste of what life was like living in Court 15.

  • Booking advisable
  • Free event

We're opening our doors to visitors to explore Court 15 and the ground-floor rooms of the back-to-back houses. Our volunteers will be on hand to tell you more about the fascinating history of the houses and the many people who lived and worked here.

The event is free but we recommend that you pre-book your space to avoid any disappointment on the day.

Please note that we are not running guided tours for this event and only the ground floor of the property will be open.

We have the following time slots for booking: 10.30 am-1.30 pm or 1.30 pm-3.00 pm (last entry to the property will be 3 pm, with the property closing at 3.30 pm). 

You can arrive at any point during the allocated time slot and explore the property at your own pace.
