Lauderdale House Heritage Weekend 2026

Take a step back in time at Lauderdale House’s annual Heritage Weekend – the perfect opportunity to discover the fascinating and diverse history of Lauderdale House, Waterlow Park and the areas of Highgate and North London.

On Saturday 28 February, we celebrate Highgate’s fascinating history with our Local Heritage Fair, and special talks under the theme of ‘Using the Arts to Share the History of Overlooked Local Women.’  These include The Waterlow Park Geotrail, The Lost Girls of Highgate and By Coach to Kenwood: Dido’s Story.  All talks are free but booking is required.

On Sunday 1 March, we invite children and their families to explore the house and discover its secrets at our Heritage Family Fun Day! Activities include an exploration of  the stories of the Victorian children that lived in the house, our family trail and craft sessions. All activities are free.

From 11 am to 4pm
