Wollaton Hall Memory Appeal

 

To celebrate the remarkable milestone of 100 years of Wollaton Hall as a Natural History Museum since it opened to the public in 1926, throughout 2026, we will honour together with a year-long programme of special events & activities.

As part of this, we invite you to share your memories of Wollaton Hall & Deer Park — whether from recent visits or stories passed down by family and friends over the past 100 years. We would love to see moments spent in the Natural History Museum or across the 500 acre parkland as this will give the best reflection of how much Wollaton Hall means to everyone.

Please share your photos by one of these methods:

  • Tagging #Wollaton100 on social media (Facebook, Instagram or X)
  • Adding photos as a comment to a post we have on social media about #Wollaton100 (Facebook, Instagram or X)
  • Email to : wollaton.hall@nottinghamcity.gov.uk

Our intention is to use these photos to showcase visitor memories across Wollaton Hall & Deer Park on our :

  • website
  • social media
  • printed visual
  • digital projections

Please only share the images using one of these three methods, if you are happy for these images to be used for these purposes.

We look forward to seeing all your wonderful memories and those of stories past down over the century!

We’re excited to see together what we may uncover of Wollaton Hall’s history….
