This summer, we’re celebrating the playful childhoods of Philip and Simon Yorke, the last squires of Erddig, with a series of family-friendly activities inspired by their garden adventures. Dress up and take to the lawn to put on a performance, just as they once did. Afterwards, enjoy a selection of traditional garden games, including large dominoes, skittles, and badminton. It’s a wonderful opportunity to step back in time and experience the garden through the playful eyes of the children who once called Erddig home.
Step inside the late 17th Century house to discover 10 displays showcasing some of the Yorke's favourite pastimes, from ice skating to croquet. Can you find them all?
Activities are free, but normal admission charges apply. National Trust members and under 5s enter for free.
Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.

Yr haf hwn, rydym yn dathlu plentyndod chwareus Philip a Simon Yorke, sgweieriaid olaf Erddig, gyda chyfres o weithgareddau addas i’r teulu a ysbrydolwyd gan eu hanturiaethau gardd. Beth am wisgo i fyny a rhoi perfformiad ar y lawnt, yn union fel y gwnaethant hwy.
Wedyn, cewch fwynhau dewis o gemau gardd traddodiadol, gan gynnwys dominos mawr, sgitls, a badminton. Mae’n gyfle gwych i gamu’n ôl mewn amser a phrofi’r ardd drwy lygaid chwareus y plant a alwodd Erddig yn gartref.
Camwch i mewn i’r tŷ o gyfnod hwyr y 17eg ganrif, i ddarganfod 10 o arddangosiadau yn cyfleu hoff ddiddordebau’r teulu Yorke, o sglefrio iâ i croquet. Allwch chi ddod o hyd i bob un ohonynt?
Mae’r gweithgareddau am ddim, ond mae costau mynediad arferol yn daladwy. Am ddim i aelodau’r Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol a phlant dan 5.
Noddir Haf o Hwyl gan Starling Bank.
