Witches Brew Workshop & Tour at Provan Hall
500 years of history in the heart of Easterhouse, Glasgow. Arguably Glasgow’s oldest house, Provan Hall is the best example of a medieval fortified house in Scotland and lies with the Seven Lochs Wetland Park. Architecture, history, arts, culture, there is something for everyone at this somewhat hidden historic gem. From lords and ladies to a titanic survivor, there is a rich tapestry here of history and folk tales. Join our witches brew workshop to find out about Provan Hall’s link to the witch trials, learn about the medicinal herbs grown in our gardens since medieval times and brew your own concoction.
BOOK YOUR PLACE BY EMAILING info@provanhall.org. Tell us your name and the number of spaces you’d like to book. If you book a place and then cannot make the workshop, please do let us know so we can let someone on the waiting list take your place. Please note this is an adult workshop and a supervising adult must accompany anyone under the age of 18. We will also be running a family friendly workshop of Witches Brew.
