Mary Arden’s Farm and Hall’s Croft

Please note: Both Mary Arden’s Farm and Hall’s Croft remain closed to general visits.

Both properties continue to provide dedicated learning spaces, with Hall’s Croft hosting A-Level and higher education groups and Mary Arden’s Farm playing host to our primary school workshops where children can get hands-on and learn more about Shakespeare’s work, life and times in a secure setting.

Outside of term time, Mary Arden’s Farm transforms into an events space, where families can escape into the past to enjoy Tudor-inspired fun! See our What’s On page for more information on upcoming events.

The Shakespeare Centre also remains closed to visitors until further notice. This includes on-site educational courses and after-hours events. The Reading Room is now open for in-person research activity.
