About

The Sussex Guild returns this summer to Michelham Priory, a Grade I listed Tudor house, surrounded by England's largest water filled medieval moat.

Enter through the gatehouse and immerse yourself in the past whilst meeting the makers of todays high-quality contemporary crafts, from whom you may buy directly or commission bespoke items.

A wide range of handmade ceramics, textiles, jewellery, leatherwork, stone carving, pewter, wood, glass, furniture and printmaking will be displayed in marquees on the lawns as well as in the Elizabethan barn.

Some designers will be demonstrating their skills, so you'll see jewellery making, woodturning, embroidery and quilting, together with several potters showing different techniques.

Extensive grounds and gardens to explore, free parking, a licensed café, areas for children's play and picnics, make an ideal day out.
