The costumes are based on the effigy of Lady Joyce Acton, which lies in St Leaonard's Church. Learn about the different materials and making methods of Tudor clothing in this half hour talk, held in the Wood Yard cafe.

Please note that spaces are available on a first come, first served basis, with the Wood Yard opening at 10.30am for hot drinks and cakes.

The talk will begin at 11am and will last approximately 30 minutes with a Q&A session at the end.
