Storytelling with our Storyteller

New story - The Horse in the House
The storyteller, dressed as a Victorian lady, remembers about stories her Grandma told about her own childhood when she played with Lord Sefton's children and they were taught to ride ponies.
She recalls rhymes and poems that involve sounds and a game about horses that was popular with all the children in the big house. Some of the paintings in the House are used to show examples of horses belonging to the people who lived at Croxteth in the old days, and the party search for a shy horse hiding in one of the rooms!
