Heritage fans don’t forget this that this coming weekend a number of properties around the Island will be open free of charge to the public.
Two properties in Alexandra Gardens (the private road just above the Winter Gardens), Ventnor will be open to the public between 2pm-5pm on Saturday and Sunday as part of the Heritage Open Days event.
Number 3, Bermuda House is of course well known as the property that famous composer Edwards Elgar spent his honeymoon at in 1889. Listen to a podcast with Andrew Neill, Chairman of the Elgar Society at the unveiling of an historical Blue Plaque at the property.
Number 5, The Windsor Carlton Hotel has changed hands many times over the years since it started life as a lodging house in 1888.
Pop along to hear the history of the properties and enjoy some afternoon tea.
