Ordsall Hall is the oldest building in Salford, dating back to 1177.

It was once home to the Radclyffe family who lived there for 300 years.

Now it is a historical venue telling the story of the house and of the people who once lived there.

The workshop is part of Ordsall Hall’s Urban Living Programme which runs every Sunday afternoon until June.

Its aim is to make people feel more at home in the city and to encourage mindfulness and relaxation at weekends.

The programme includes specialist talks, design activities, exercise classes and urban gardening events.
