Outside, you can join guided walks along the 2km Battlefield Trail, let children loose in the free indoor and outdoor Discovery Zone, and refuel at the 1485 Tithe Barn Café for cakes, sandwiches and hot food. It suits families, school groups and history enthusiasts, with mobility scooters, wheelchairs and induction loops available, and well-behaved dogs welcome on leads.
