Activities & Mission

The Trust cares for a Tudor house on a site that has been inhabited for 10,000 years. It uses the place and its collections to inspire participation through interdisciplinary workshops, events and training in ways that enhance the Curriculum, are enriched by archaeological, scientific and creative expertise, and link with the work of the author Alan Garner, whose workplace Blackden remains.
