HERITAGE OPEN DAYS 2010

Heritage Open Days celebrates England’s fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to properties that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission. Every year on four days in September, buildings of every age, style and function throw open their doors, ranging from castles to factories, town halls to tithe barns, parish churches to Buddhist temples. It is a chance to discover hidden architectural treasures and enjoy a wide range of tours, events and activities which bring to life local history.
In South Yorkshire we are celebrating HODs in style with 57 heritage faith sites open over the weekend!
The majority are also staging special events and activities, and many will be serving scrummy refreshments including home-made cakes and scones at some.
The programme is varied, with sites opening on different days and at different times. We have put together a comprehensive programme listing all heritage faith sites in South Yorkshire opening for HODs, their opening days/times, details of special events and how to get there.
