The Friends Appeal 2023 – Replica Historic Festive Food

Would you like to see the beautiful Gillows Dining Table decked out in historic seasonal festive food?
Please help the Friends of Lancaster Judges’ Lodgings raise the funds to purchase replica food for the table.
We believe that spreading the table with replica food typical of a formal dinner party in the early nineteenth
century will provide extra insight into the lives of the Judges who made the Judges’ Lodgings their home
when in Lancaster, and into the dining habits of the late Georgian period.

Initially, we aim to raise £1,000 – please help if you can.
