A visit to a Georgian town house affords opportunities for Fyling Hall’s Year 8s to undertake some historical creative writing! Imagine you are wandering through Fairfax House one spring or autumn evening, and you encounter the ghosts of Lord Fairfax and his daughter Anne! What questions would you ask them about their life and times in York, 250 years ago?

All this in addition to deepening their appreciation of Georgian Britain and the role of Primary evidence.
