Kids – Are you the new Sir Thomas Tresham?

Sir Thomas Tresham? 🤔

Sir Thomas Tresham commissioned the Market House around 1577 and was known by another name – Thomas ‘the Builder’ due to his passion for building memorable constructions in Northamptonshire such as Rushton Triangular Lodge, Rushden Hall and Lyveden New Bield. Read more about him HERE.

There is now an opportunity for infant and junior school children to follow in his footsteps – well, almost! 😀

Rothwell Preservation Trust is looking for imaginative young builders to construct a model of our iconic Market House 🏛️👷🏼‍♀️👷🏼‍♂️

Not from stone, but from something much easier to use – LEGO! Big, small, colourful, realistic or abstract, it doesn’t matter, providing it resembles our iconic Market House. So, why not become a legend of LEGO and show-off your skills and imagination? 👌🤏🏼

All entries will be judged by Mayor of Rothwell, Ian Jelley and Sue Johnson, Chair of the Rothwell Preservation Trust – and there are prizes for the winners 🥇🏅

👥 WHO: Two categories – ‘Infants’ and ‘Juniors’ (based on school age).

⏰ WHEN: Drop off your models at the Council Offices in the Market House on either Tuesday, 31st March or Thursday, 2nd April between 10 and 2pm. See all the entrants on Good Friday (3rd April) upstairs at the Market House between 10 and 12 noon. Winners announced just after 1pm at the new Greening Road Play Park.

📌 WHERE: The Market House.

🏆PRIZES: Book Tokens.
