The Museum & Heritage Centre at Henley-in-Arden, near Stratford-upon-Avon, England is a unique facility made possible by the generosity of a former Lord of the Manor of Henley-in-Arden, Joseph Alexander Hardy of Pennsylvania and inaugurated by his daughter, Robin Hardy Freed, in November 1996.
Please take a look round our site. We look forward to welcoming you on a visit to the Centre very soon.
Peter de Montfort Lord of the Manor obtained a Market Charter for the Manor of Beaudesert from King Henry III on 10th February 1227. It allowed a Monday market and a yearly fair at the feast of St Giles which was almost exactly the same as the Charter he was granted for the Manor of Henley on 3rd July 1221.
