While you’re on your permitted daily exercise, discover uplifting quotes from Charlie Mackesy’s beloved book The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and the Horse as you explore the grounds at Marble Hill.
Marble Hill has continued the collaboration with author Charlie Mackesy to present prints across the park to encourage reflection and positivity. It is our hope that this exhibition will offer words of wisdom and inspiration to uplift our visitors during the current challenging times.

Be one of the first to hear local historian Jonathan Crofts reveal Cambridge Park through a series of talks based on his new book “Meadows, Mansions and Munitions”, due out on March 8th.

Using many illustrations and sharing stories of some of its colourful characters, Jonathan will:

Ever wondered what it was like to be a guest at an aristocratic Georgian dinner party?
You would have been dining at the height of table etiquette in European history, typically tucking into a sumptuous 75 dish meal.
Dinners lasted for hours. Napkins, or the lack of them, gave away the host’s foreign policy alliance. Fans spoke their own secret language. Just how, though, did you get to become the pineapple of politeness?
Minna Andersen, a Blue Badge Guide with a passion for local history, will transport us to the heart of this opulent entertaining scene and give us the chance to hear stories of the gorging Georgians that took place on our doorstep, both at Marble Hill House and Orleans House next door.
Join us for an amazing culinary journey as we house hop between these two lavish historic properties in search of the most epic dinner parties in 18th century Twickenham.
We are open to anyone who has an interest in Marble Hill House and Park. This website is part of our mission and will become your one-stop portal for anything and everything Marble Hill related, from its rich and storied history to news, events and volunteering opportunities.

You are able to visit the park from 7am to 5.30pm and will be able to see the Marble Hill Remembers and the Exhibition of Hope, but please observe social distancing and the restrictions du jour.
There are 66 acres of parkland for you to explore. English Heritage open the grounds from 7am to 5.30pm, and while the House and cafe remain closed for refurbishment there’s plenty going on.
As we continue to uncover more information about our local history, how can we put it in context? How can you?
