HISTORIC Harvington Hall is to open its doors to the public for free tomorrow in celebration of a national heritage open weekend.

The fun-filled event also marks the cultural landmark's acquisition of heritage lottery funding and will be followed by a paid-for weekend of artistic treats.

Business manager Sherida Breeden said they were expecting a good turn-out for the open day, which lasts from 11.30am until 4.30pm.

"It's followed by an artistic weekend with plenty of arts and crafts on display," she added.
