Internal Glass Porch

During the winter months Lancaster Judges’ Lodgings underwent some remodelling on the ground floor, with the installation of an internal glass porch to protect the entrance hall from the elements.  This will be good news to visitors and staff alike – the room stewards in particular will no longer have to wear three layers of warmth under their period costumes.  With a more welcoming hall, it will be more comfortable to have the ticket desk and retail area in the hall as visitors come in, and the visit proper to the house will begin in a new Welcome Gallery, giving some insight into the Judges’ Lodgings, its history and what to look out for as you go round this magnificent 17th century building.
