Yesterday we were joined by students from Sherwell Valley Primary School to learn all about the history of Torre Abbey. They visited the Spanish Barn, explored the gardens on a Tudor herb hunt, conquered a riddle trail through the museum and heard tales of ghosts and galleons.
Pirates and galleons and shipwrecks, oh my! ☠️
Today we have been busy crafting and telling tales in Torre Abbey's Spanish Barn. Our fantastic school group have been hard at work decorating their wooden fleets ready for a reenactment of the history of the Spanish Armada 🇪🇸 🇬🇧
