The Household is a group of highly experienced living history presenters who believe in maintaining a high standard of historical accuracy. Knowledge of the social, economic and political context of the lives of people in the past and meticulous attention to detail can transform a visitor's experience of an historic site.

In order to make our presentation as accessible as possible we re-create the house of a silkwomen 1483-85, within the framework of modern tents.

The modern tents have the area of a 3 bay house of the 15th century, and the accurately patterned hangings define the rooms. Each room is dressed in accurate reproductions and staffed by an expert in the area represented. In this context, we show the daily life of a silkwoman of the late 15th century and the skills needed to support her lifestyle.

We pride ourselves on our communication skills, and share independent research to ensure we are steeped in the knowledge of our period.

We belive that getting the details correct adds to the experience of the visitor.
