Posted April 27th, 2010 by Birmingham Conservation Trust with No Comments

Last year’s Heritage Open Days 2009 were an exciting event, with Birmingham Conservation Trust seeing a resulting flurry of activity in support of the Newman Brothers Coffin works.

In no time at all, it’s nearly Heritage Open Days 2010! The event will take place from Thursday 9th until Sunday 12th September 2010.

According to the Heritage Open Days website:

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 once-a-year chance to discover hidden architectural treasures and enjoy a wide range of tours, events and activities which bring to life local history and culture.

They’re still looking for participants for the national programme, with a first deadline of May 1st and late entries accepted until August 1st. For more information, visit Heritage Open Days. Alternatively, contact the Heritage Open Days team at hods@english-heritage.org.uk or on 0844 335 884.
