St Barnabas CEP School

Come and join us to explore this Victorian Primary School set in what was the working-class centre of Tunbridge Wells. The Victorian exterior of the school is largely as it was, and inside, although altered to provide suitable classrooms for the children, you can still see much of the original elements and physical structure of the building. In some of the classrooms, there will be albums of old school photos, the original Headteacher's log books stretching back to the opening of the school, old school registers and some other donations from ex-pupils. You can explore the school on your own or join a guided tour of the school

This year we are once again hosting the team from Scotney Castle, who will be running a series of workshops based on their conservation work. These workshops are for people of all ages and cover all aspects of their work with objects at Scotney from gilding to textiles no need to book just come along, you can also bring along small objects you value for advice on caring for them. These are new workshops, and your participation and feedback will inform future workshops. Everyone is welcome, COME CURIOUS, LEAVE INSPIRED.
