There is much to enjoy at Wallington this year as we invite visitors to delve into the story behind the 'gift', enjoy pop-up theatre giving you a special glimpse into the negotiations and have fun reminiscing on a trip down memory lane in the room that time forgot. This is what's in store for you at Wallington over the coming months.

Wallington needs a lot of looking after – from conserving the Clocktower to repairing drystone walls, keeping the books bug-free and the trees in tip top shape, so look out for Conservation in Action across the property.
