The House built on Love and Chocolate. Speaker Glennis Whyte
Glennis is the coordinator for the National Trust Volunteer Talks Service who raise money for the National Trust. This talk tells the story of the National Trust property, Goddards in York.
This was the home of Noel Terry and his family (Terry's chocolates). As well as showing the audience the house and grounds, Glennis will take you back to the beginning of confectionary making in York and the family's ups and downs behind the scenes, leading up to the building of the house. There are two love stories on the way; if you enjoy chocolate and a love story then this is the place to be.
Entrance on door: Members free, Visitors £3, including refreshments.
