Piccotts End 16th century Paintings

Details

This is the second event of three today
Walk - Art - Thai meal

Come to all three or just one. NB: Spaces are limited as tickets have to booked for the paintings 🖼️

This is a once a year opportunity to visit a Grade I listed medieval cottage containing unique and very important early sixteenth century.
These were painted in 1527, just before the Reformation, as a statement of Catholic support at a time of religious turmoil in the country, and were hidden for hundreds of years. They are the only such surviving examples in the country!

At each tour there will be a short talk by Karen Murphy on her research into the history of the building and the paintings, including some of the important late medieval history of the area.

Tea, coffee and homemade cakes will also be available.

To support the conservation work of the important paintings, donations on the day would be gratefully received (suggested £5).

Parking is around the village or at Gadebridge park
