Over time the life stories of people from the past can become clouded in interpretation, lost to history, left untold...

This has been the case with Greyfriars last resident, Miss Matley Moore. But, in this self-guided exhibition, the indelible mark she left on Greyfriars and the City of Worcester will be revealed.

Join us between Tuesday the 12th to Friday the 15th August to experience Greyfriars house as never before, and find out more about the woman, artist, and 'local saviour', that once called Greyfriars home.

Visits to the exhibition will run 11am - 4pm (last entry at 3.30pm) from Tuesday 12th to Friday 15th August 2025.

The café and second-hand bookshop will be open as usual.

Admission is free for National Trust Members, or £8.50 for adults and £4.25 for under 18s.

Please note: During these dates the house will be accessible by guided tour only between 11am to 4pm, with guided tours available at 10am each day subject to availability.
