Regency Christmas and Dorothy’s Birthday Celebration
About
On Christmas Day it was Dorothy’s Wordsworth’s birthday! Find out how Dorothy and her brother William celebrated when she lived in Dove Cottage over 200 years ago. We’ll read some of her birthday journal entries and then try some Regency era Christmas crafts including making pomanders, wreaths and yule logs. See Dorothy’s handwritten gingerbread recipe and then decorate a gingerbread biscuit. For those feeling jolly there will even be the chance to learn a traditional Cumbrian step dance.For families with children over 3 years (younger siblings welcome). Children £10, adults £5.
