The Linkage Annual Trip
This will be held on Monday 31st July with the destination being Callendar House Falkirk. Callendar House dates from the 14th century but was rebuilt in the 19th in French chateau style fused with Scots Baronial. It is set in the nationally important historic designed landscape of Callendar Park, which contains a section of the Antonine Wall World Heritage Site. The estate was originally one of the seats of the Thanes of Callendar (note spelling) who also had a castle close to St Kessog’s Manse by the river Teith in our Callander.
The House’s permanent displays are ‘The Story of Callendar House (from the 11th to the 19th century)’, ‘ The Antonine Wall: Rome’s Northern Frontier’ and ‘Falkirk: Crucible of Revolution 1750-1850’ . When we visit there will be a temporary exhibition on the Romans and one called ‘Workhorse: the Clydesdales of Flanders Moss’ of photographs by Michael Prince.
In the restored 1825 Kitchen, costumed interpreters create an exciting interactive experience with samples of early 19th century food and stories of working life in a large household.
There is a tea room and all floors are accessible by lift.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callendar_House for more details
We leave Callander at 10.00 and will return no later than 16.30. Cost £10.00 payable in advance to Hilary Gunkel mail@hilarygunkel.co.uk 01877 330798
