Talks to groups

We offer talks about the fascinating history of West Horsley Place to local organisations. The talk covers the history of West Horsley Place from its origins as an Anglo Saxon village to the founding of the West Horsley Place Trust following Bamber Gascoigne's surprise inheritance of the estate from Mary, Duchess of Roxburghe.

We'd be delighted to come and talk to your group; we usually ask for a minimum donation of £50 per talk plus travel expenses.
