Bourne Hall, situated in the heart of Ewell Village, is a remarkable modern building of unusual architectural interest, surrounded by beautiful grounds. Opened in 1970, it is well furnished, well equipped and flexible enough to accommodate most requirements.

With a variety of different sized halls and rooms, it is perfect for anything from a small meeting to the largest of receptions. It is used for conferences, weddings and wedding receptions, fairs, recitals, meetings and parties.

The landscaped gardens, lawns and lake, with a fountain, provide a wonderful backdrop for your events and are particularly impressive for photographs.

Bourne Hall has good parking facilities and is within easy reach of Central London and the M25. West Ewell British Rail Station is five minutes walk away and provides regular direct rail routes to Waterloo and Guildford. Local buses run to and from Ewell Village.

The Battle Field at Agincourt

Agincourt

Until 11 February 2012 *on now

Outnumbered 6 to 1 by the French army, the English, led by King Henry V, viewed their enemy as simply “Enough to kill, enough to capture and enough to run away”.
The English and Welsh longbow-men devastated the densely packed French knights and men at arms with their withering fire and helped to ensure a decisive victory for their king .
Meet with one of the victorious English knights and understand how the battle was fought and won. Discover the weapons used and the armour worn and learn just how effective the longbow was in highly trained hands.

Herald of Spring

3 — 4 March 2012

Bourne Hall’s Herald of Spring will mingle the sound of clashing steel and the merriment of a Shrove Tuesday Fair as history unfolds in a pageant extending 400 years from the coming of the Normans to the Wars of the Roses. Visit the fair with its stalls in which the apothecary, fletcher and other tradesmen work at their crafts. Thrill as the Battles of Hastings and Bosworth are fought once more. Try jousting if you dare! Learn how to fight with a sword! and perhaps you too will join in the heat of battle. You may need this skill to fight off the living dead of the Middle Ages as they rise up before the storyteller’s art. Gather in the crowd when bearbaiting and cockfighting are brought back to life. For the less stout of heart there will be musicians and dancing, with a chance to try sports including quoits and foot wrestling, and to take home your own brass rubbing.

Travel back over 2,700 years and witness the birth of the Olympics held in honour of Zeus, father of the gods. Hear about the events that the athletes competed in and decide if you are brave and tough enough to take part in the Pankration.
