Planets and Discovery theme half term at Woolsthorpe Manor

Launch yourself into a 'Planets & Discovery'-themed half term at Woolsthorpe Manor.

Gravity has pulled an unusual object to earth from outer space and it has landed in The Barn at the National Trust property - a two-thirds scale Lego model of the Soyuz Descent Module.

Visitors can take a #SpaceSelfie and follow a free Weird Planets trail as it weaves its way around the site.

There are also mid-week Planets & Discovery workshops, running from Tuesday, 28 May to Thursday, 30 May, where you can experience the colossal scale of the solar system, get to know our weird and wonderful planets and make parachutes to bring spacecraft to a safe landing.
