Bluebells and Erkenwald Take Center Stage -Two Unique Events Coming to Soulton Hall This Spring

 

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the Whitchurch Herald for their recent article featuring our two upcoming events.

We’re delighted to have this opportunity to share what we’re doing with the wider community, and the Herald’s coverage is invaluable in helping us reach a local audience.

The article highlighted both our “As You Like It” Bluebell Walk, which supports the important work of Macmillan Cancer Support, and the unique immersive reading of the Middle English poem Erkenwald.

Hath not old custom made this life more sweet
Than that of painted pomp? Are not these woods
More free from peril than the envious court?

We believe both events offer something special: the Bluebell Walk a chance to experience the stunning beauty of Soulton Wood in springtime while contributing to a worthy cause, and the Erkenwald reading a rare opportunity to engage with a foundational text of English literature.
