Finchcocks is a fine early Georgian manor in a beautiful unspoilt setting.

The manor house now holds a magnificent collection of some ninety historical keyboard instruments, chamber organs, virginals, harpsichords, clavichords and a wide range of early pianos.

About thirty-five of these are fully restored, together with a number of barrel organs, musical boxex and othe mechanical instruments.

Finchcocks is now a musical centre of international repute, and many events take place there. The house with its high oak pannelling provides an ideal setting for music performed on period instruments.

Open Sundays from Easter to the end of September , Bank Holiday Mondays, and Wednesdays and Thursdays in August.

Please ring (01580)-211702 for further details.
