Kelmscott Manor

32 members enjoyed a trip to Kelmscott Manor, the former home of Williams Morris and his family.  First there was a stop at a nearby garden centre allowing time to browse and also have some lunch.  Then tea and biscuits on arrival at the Manor, along with a short talk giving some background on William Morris’ connection to it. We were then split into 3 groups, each with a guide, to have a tour of the house and see some of the collection housed there. It was a long but enjoyable day.
