Free Clifton House Open Day – Featuring stories of Mary Ann McCracken.
Clifton House will open its doors to the public on Saturday 4th July 10am – 12noon
Come along between 10am – 12pm for a unique opportunity to step inside and explore one of Belfast’s oldest and most beautiful buildings and hear more about Mary Ann McCracken, whose influence on the house can still be felt today.
This will be a drop-in style event where our experienced volunteer guides will be on hand to answer your questions and offer you some highlights of Mary Ann’s involvement within the Poor House, as well as some of the history of the building itself.
Please note that no booking is required for this drop-in style event and no public tours of the house will take place on the day.
