“If these woods could talk” history walks at Colby Woodland Garden

Guided history walks around the story-rich gardens and woodland.

Join us for a guided history walk through the Colby's woodland garden and meadow. Learn about the land beneath and uncover the stories, mining, scandals and murder. It may be a green and tranquil space today, but the past beyond the vegetation is there to see.

These walks take place from 10.30am-12pm, booking is advisable but you can also buy tickets on the day. Tickets cost £6 for adults and £3 for children. The dates for history walks are:

  • Saturday 16 May
  • Saturday 13 June
  • Saturday 11 July
  • Saturday 15 August
  • Saturday 26 September
