A Tudor Christmas
Today I went to the Red Lodge, a home originally built in 1580. There are representations of Elizabethan, Stuart and Georgian style architecture and furnishings throughout the house including the "great oak room". It also boasts a re-creation Tudor knot garden. This weekend the Red Lodge featured Tudor style Christmas preparations. There was a jester, a sweets cook, a musician and a teacher all in Tudor fashion to explain different aspects of a Tudor Christmas. They also demonstrated weaving, frangipane decorating, music and making pomanders. It was quite a festive experience.
