Medieval Falconry Day
If you’re looking for a day out with a difference, don’t miss The Bishop’s Palace’s Medieval Falconry Day on Saturday 13th April (site open 9.30am-5.30pm). Held on the South Lawn, against the stunning backdrop of the medieval Palace’s Great Hall, Tony from the specialist falconry firm, Raptorcare, will entertain crowds with a day of fantastic flying displays, fascinating information and beautiful birds! Displays will take place at 12pm and 3pm. Aimed at visitors of all ages, the displays will illustrate how these birds would have been used in Medieval times and why. Marvel at their skill and training as they show off their well-honed moves in front of the audience and in between displays, Tony can be found at his medieval tent where he can answer all your burning questions! The 14 acres of gardens will also be open, and the Dragon’s Lair Play Area is the perfect place to exercise little legs! The Bishop’s Table Café will also be open, serving a range of lunches, drinks and snacks.
