Open House London in Haringey 2013

This weekend sees buildings all over London, many not normally open to the public, throw open their doors to the general public for Open House London. 

There are 26 places open in Haringey this year including the medieval All Hallows Church (behind Bruce Castle museum) which will be open 2 – 5pm on Sunday only, the Tower and Churchyard of St Mary's Hornsey and a walk through Muswell Hill. Details of all the places open  in the borough can be found on the Open House website.

As part of the Open House weekend, Bruce Castle Museum will be running tours beginning at 1.30pm and are every half hour until 4pm (maximum 20 per tour; children must be accompanied).
