What’s on

Book signing with Lady Glenconner

Meet Lady Glenconner as she joins us in the Gift Shop signing copies of her latest book- Picnic Papers.

Lady Glenconner invites both old friends and new acquaintances to join her in Picnic Papers. Featuring contributions from Bryan Adams, Graham Norton, Lorraine, Rupert Everett, Tina Brown, Freya Stark and many more, they explore the curious British obsession with dining alfresco, despite our famously unpredictable weather. Brimming with extraordinary tales and a few nostalgic recipes (though this is not a recipe book!) Lady Glenconner’s Picnic Papers is an invitation to a delightful feast of memories and culinary delights.

If you’ve already got your book, feel free to bring that along. But if not our Gift Shop will be stocked with all of Lady Glenconner’s books.

This event is not ticketed, but there will be a one-way queue system in place.
