Untold Stories: Miss Matley Moore a self-guided exhibition

Join us and uncover the untold story of Greyfriars' own Miss Matley Moore...

  • Booking not needed
  • Admission applies

Over time the life stories of people from the past can become clouded in interpretation, lost to history, left untold...

This has been the case with Greyfriars last resident, Miss Matley Moore. But, in this self-guided exhibition, the indelible mark she left on Greyfriars and the City of Worcester will be revealed.

Join us this February half term and experience Greyfriars house as never before, and find out more about the woman, artist, and 'local saviour', that once called Greyfriars home.

Visits to the house will run 13.00 - 15.30 (last entry at 15.00) from Tuesday 18 to Friday 21 February 2025.

The café and second-hand bookshop will be open as usual.

Please note: During these dates the house will be accessible by guided tour between 10.00 and 12.00 (depending on tour guide availability), with entrance to the self-guided exhibition opening at 13.00.

Over the following weekend (22 & 23) the house will be open for self-guided visits as part of Living History in Worcester 10.00-16.00.
