Hello everyone,
I'm in the early planning stages of a Holliday to the UK about this time
next year and I'm trying to work out what I should visit, I'm spending a
week in London with friends and after that point I'm planning to spend
another 2 or 3 weeks around the UK & Ireland. the London part of my trip is
fairly firmly planned but for the rest of the UK & Ireland I've only got
Bath, Stratford on Avon, Warwick Castle, and Hampton Court definitely on my
list so far, so what else would you suggest for a costumer and Tudor history
nut?

Platt Hall, Manchester has a costume collection, usually on display,
but with all collections in the U.K. it is wise to check on opening
times - collections are being closed, either permanently or for
refurbishment, all the time.
Kentwell, in Suffolk, has living history events, Tudor in date in the
main, but again, depends on the time of year.
Tudor clothing on display in the "provinces" is very rare, and there
are not that many other collections - I cannot remember the name of
one in Wales, used to be the Snowshill Collection - maybe if you
googled "Snowshill" you might find it?
