Stratford Brass Rubbing Centre
In Medieval times churches, halls and castles throughout England contained a wealth of brassware that had been shaped and engraved by skilled craftsmen. Plaques, armour and fireplace adornments depicted family heritage, professions & trades. The Stratford brass rubbing centre contains a unique selection of brassware which enables your pupils to find out more and practice the skill of brass rubbing.

Holy Trinity Church
This 13th century parish church is probably the most visited in England thanks, in part, to its connections to William Shakespeare. This was where Stratford's most famous son was baptised, served as a lay rector and was finally buried alongside his wife Anne Hathaway. The church is still a thriving place of worship and the grounds present a peaceful oasis of calm away from the bustling streets.
