Exploring the Vertues of Herbes

Learn more about the power of plants. It is the year 1602; meet, watch and help our Herb Women preparing natural remedies in the Tudor Kitchen. Using a variety of plants gathered from their own physick garden and from the wild places of the former Polsloe Priory, they will be preparing infusions, tisanes, poultices and healing salves for the benefit and well being of the Hurst-Clifton household. St Nicholas Priory is a hidden jewel just a short walk from the city centre: This splendid Grade 1 listed building was originally part of Exeter’s first medieval monastery. It is now presented as a richly furnished Tudor home in 1602 style based on evidence from inventories and archaeology.
