Book a free self-led visit to Lyddington Bede House and organise your day to suit your curriculum objectives.
Originally the medieval wing of a palace belonging to the Bishops of Lincoln, Lyddington Bede House has been an important feature in the ironstone village since the medieval period.
Wander through the rooms occupied by the poor of the parish throughout the house's later use, and learn about Sir Thomas Cecil, son of Queen Elizabeth’s chief minister, who was responsible for this conversion.
The roof construction and panelling in the upper rooms are really interesting features to explore and the garden to the rear gives you the chance to see plants from the period in which the house was built.
