Delegates who will be in Newcastle on Sunday 17 June are invited to join us for an excursion to Wallington Hall. Home to the Trevelyan family for centuries, Wallington is 25 minutes north of Newcastle. Situated in extensive grounds, and housing a delightful
pre-Raphaelite collection, the house is curated to encompass its history from the mid eighteenth century through to its acquisition by the National Trust. With a cafe, shop, lovely river walks and a secret walled garden, this estate is one of the gems of Northumberland.
Further information on Wallington can be found here:
http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/wallington/. The fee of £22 (which you will be able to add to your basket during the registration process) includes transport and admission - not to be missed!
