Heritage
Open Days activities will take place all over England (except London)
from 10th until 13th September 2004.
Eastnor
Castle joins 26,000 volunteers across England who work behind the
scenes to organise Heritage Open Days locally.
Dr
Simon Thurley, Chief Executive of the Civic Trust, said "Heritage
Open Days have become an integral part of the heritage calendar,
allowing everyone, wherever they live and whatever their background,
to enjoy, understand and feel a part of the country's rich and diverse
cultural heritage.
"I
am delighted that Heritage Open Days 2004 will reveal what lies
behind even more of the nation's historic doors."
