Prepare to be charmed at Fenton House and Garden, where music echoes through the centuries. The National Trust has been the keeper of the Benton Fletcher collection of early keyboard instruments since 1938, and these historic treasures are more than just museum pieces; they're music-makers. With instruments dating from a 1540 virginal to a 1925 clavichord, the collection spans centuries of craftsmanship and creativity. Delve into the world of these finely worked and painted instruments, and if you're lucky, catch a live demonstration by volunteer musicians. At Fenton House, the past harmonizes with the present, making it a must-visit for music enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
