About
A family trail follows Victorian tilemaker George Maw’s travels as visitors find suitcases, collect passport stamps and explore activities around Benthall Hall and garden.
Pick up a Victorian-style passport in the Entrance Hall and find the suitcases around the house and garden. Each stop offers an activity, objects to look at and a stamp; QR codes share more about Maw’s journeys through places including Syria, Morocco, Spain and India. The trail is free, but normal property admission applies.
