Join us for a special weekend of events as we celebrate the re-release of Guy McCrone's 'Wax Fruit' trilogy - a tale of ambition set in 1870s Glasgow.

Join us in the Drawing Room at Holmwood House where you will learn more about life as a woman in the Victorian era; the fashions, the rules, and the many expectations.

We then invite you to join us for a spot of tea, as through an interactive tea-tasting session, you will learn more about some of the popular teas of the Victorian era.

And thanks to the team behind the TV adaptation of 'Wax Fruit', you'll be given the opportunity to experience a unique exhibition of costumes from the teaser trailer.
