Pollok House
A grand country house near Glasgow city centre, Pollok House is Scotland's answer to Downton Abbey and gives a real taste of upstairs/downstairs life in the 1930s.
Children can learn through activity what it was like to live in the House and be a servant in Victorian times. Cost £2 per head (or £1 per child if your school has an educational membership of the Trust).
Pollok House is a current holder of the Sandford Award for Heritage Education. Our Learning Team run a formal schools programme, mainly aimed at primary level, where the most popular workshop is the Victorian Experience.
