SUMMARY:Mary Queen of Scots: The Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:We are proud to host this remarkable new exhibition at Peterborough Cathedral\, the original burial site of Mary\, Queen of Scots\, offering a unique and evocative setting in which to encounter her story. \nMary Queen of Scots: The Exhibition presents the extraordinary life of one of Britain’s most compelling historical figures\, tracing a story shaped by power\, faith\, ambition\, and resilience amid the turbulence of 16th-century Europe. \nThrough a rich collection of original artefacts and reproductions\, enhanced by striking visuals and immersive scenes\, the exhibition follows Mary’s journey from crowned infant to a life marked by political upheaval\, personal loss\, and enduring legacy. Intimate personal narratives intertwine with high-stakes political intrigue\, revealing the depth and complexity of a woman whose story continues to fascinate more than four centuries later. \nCarefully crafted to both engage and enlighten\, this exhibition offers a moving and memorable experience\, whether you are a lifelong history enthusiast or discovering Mary’s story for the very first time. \nBooking Information  \nMary Queen of Scots: The Exhibition can be viewed by ticketed entry of £8 per adult\, £6 per child/student (ID required for students)\, under 2’s go free. Tickets are available using the booking link or on the door. \nYour ticket provides access to the entire Cathedral\, including the Exhibition.

SUMMARY:Halloween Adventure Trail & Crafts at Belvoir Castle
DESCRIPTION:Belvoir Castle’s Halloween trail is returning to the Adventure Playground and Animal Park\, with a new run of craft sessions launching in the Retail Village at the point where the trail concludes.\n\nThe adventure starts well before that\, though. Across Belvoir’s adventure playground\, spell ingredients have been hidden among the climbing frames and walkways\, setting children the task of tracking them all down to brew a counter-curse. It’s a proper piece of Halloween theatre rather than a simple trail marker hunt – every child who completes it earns the official title of Belvoir Castle Curse Breaker\, along with a treat to mark the achievement. That sense of quest and reward carries the story from the Adventure Playground to the Animal Park and Retail Village\, where visitors follow the seasonal trail through to its conclusion.\n\nVisitors following the seasonal trail arrive\, story complete\, in the Retail Village – and it’s here that the estate has added a programme of Halloween-themed craft activities\, giving families a tactile way to round off their visit. Rather than the trail simply ending\, the crafts extend it: children can create their own take-home pieces inspired by the characters with the helpful hands of the Belvoir Witches.\n\nThe craft sessions are priced at £4.50 and have been designed with flexibility in mind. They work as a natural add-on for anyone already visiting the Adventure Playground for the trail\, but they also stand alone – a shorter\, self-contained activity for families who want a Halloween outing without committing to the full walk. That dual approach reflects a wider shift in how heritage sites like Belvoir are thinking about seasonal programming: less about a single ticketed experience\, and more about a menu of options that visitors can mix and match according to time\, weather\, and how long small legs are willing to walk.\n\nSessions can be booked in advance\, and spaces are also available on the day for those who haven’t reserved ahead\, subject to availability.\nGardens & Adventure Playground Tickets are £10 per adult\, £6 per child.\nHalloween Crafts are £4.50 per child.\nBelvoir Animal Park will be open every day in October Half Term\, 9:30am – 4pm\, not just the weekends.

DESCRIPTION:This November\, the Glasshouse at Rutland Nursery\, our dedicated indoor space for houseplants\, provides the setting for a special morning with Sarah Gerrard-Jones\, aka The Plant Rescuer\, celebrating the launch of her new book\, Love Your Orchid. \nOrchids are among the world’s most popular houseplants\, yet they are often misunderstood.

She’ll also cover what to do when flowering finishes\, how to care for an orchid during its dormant period and how to recognise when it needs attention. \nWith more than 28\,000 species\, orchids are a fascinating and diverse plant family. Sarah will share her tips for recognising when an orchid is struggling and how to help it thrive. Whether you’re an experienced grower\, have a struggling plant at home or are new to orchids\, you’ll leave with useful knowledge and greater confidence in your care. \nSarah Gerrard-Jones is a houseplant expert\, writer and award-winning designer\, best known as The Plant Rescuer. She won Gold at RHS Chelsea Flower Show in 2022 for The Plant Clinic and has appeared on ITV’s Alan Titchmarsh’s Gardening Club and BBC Gardeners’ World. She is also a founder of the Plant Rescue Box\, an RHS-backed initiative helping to reduce plant waste. \nA practical and inspiring morning for anyone who wants to understand their orchids better and help them thrive. \nPhotography credit Dorling Kindersley- Jason Ingram

SUMMARY:The Uppingham Fatstock Show
DESCRIPTION:This time-honoured agricultural showcase proudly staged each year by a dedicated committee from the local farming community. It’s a wonderful opportunity to experience the traditions of rural life up close – a true celebration of livestock\, land\, and local pride. \nAfter a lapse of 10 years during the Second World War and rationing the Uppingham Fatstock Show was revived by a committee of local farmers in 1949. The show was held on December 15th when 17 cattle were shown\, 13 pens of sheep and 11 pigs. After that revival the show has been kept alive and prospered due to the efforts of the local community. \nIn 2017 the Committee has revised the native breed cattle class\, making it open to cattle sired by a pure bred bull currently on the Rare Breed Survival List of Native Breeds. This compliments the class in the pig section which has been in force for several years. \nList of Elgible Sires:\nAberdeen Angus\, Ayshire\, Beef Shorthorn\, Belted Galloway\, Britich White\, Devon\, Dexter\, Galloway\, Gloucester\, Guernsey\, Hereford\, Highland\, Irish Moiled\, Jersey\, Lincoln Red\, Longhorn\, Luing\, Northern Dairy Shorthorn\, Red Poll\, Shetland\, Shorthorn\, South Devon\, Sussex\, Welsh Black\, White Park\, Whitebread Shorthorn\, Vaynol. \nList of Eligible Pigs:\nBritish Lop\, Large Black\, Middle White\, Berkshire\, Tamworth\, Welsh\, British Saddleback\, Gloucester Old Spot\, Oxford Sandy & Black\, Large White.
