Join our fabulous staff, volunteers and Friends of Cannon Hall for a delightful day in the countryside and taste some of our historic pear varieties from trees over 200 years old! The day includes tours of the site from 2.30pm to 4pm with the Parks for People team.
On display in the hall is a hand-picked selection of artworks from the De Morgan Collection. It is an unparalleled collection of work by the late 19th and early 20th century ceramicist William De Morgan and his artist wife Evelyn Pickering De Morgan.
Cannon Hall is a unique venue for weddings and civil partnerships and the perfect setting for your special day. Fantastic photo opportunities can be found both inside the Hall and in the landscaped gardens.
Cannon Hall Museum, Park and Gardens has secured earmarked funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund for major improvements and conservation work around the gardens and park, including the restoration of Cannon Hall's Georgian lakes.
Take a look at the new Hear my Voice programme. It is a three year programme which encourages the people of Barnsley to dig deep into their imaginations and express themselves through poetry, written and spoken word.
Many of the beautiful spaces are available to hire for events as well as the gorgeous Cottage Gardens and parklands.
Our museums give children of all ages the opportunity to discover new things and feel inspired. Young people like museum visits as they help improve relationships with classmates and teachers, giving them the chance to get to know each other better in a unique environment.
Take a look at the Barnsley Museums online shop. You will find lots of unique gift ideas many with a Barnsley theme. You can also purchase tickets to many of our wonderful events.
