AMOC Spring Concours - Sunday 18th May
Discussion
The AMOC Spring Concours will be at Ragley Hall, 8 miles west of Stratford-upon-Avon, in Warwickshire. The 400-acre estate will create the perfect backdrop for the first Concours of the season.
The house is the family home to the 9th Marquess and Marchioness of Hertford and is filled with paintings, ceramics and antique furniture. The Great Hall is adorned with Baroque plasterwork by James Gibbs and the Red Saloon allegedly remains as it was decorated and furnished by James Wyatt in 1780. The house will of course be open for guided tours.
The Ragley of the 21st century is a country estate with a farm, butchers shop, sawmill, an adventure playground for children and a lake where one can hire a boat. Alternatively, you may prefer a stroll admiring the beautiful gardens surrounding the Hall.

On Saturday night, there will be a Tattinger champagne reception under the portico from which you will have magnificent views of the grounds and gardens of Ragley Hall. Dinner will be in the Great Hall, for a three course dinner with wine and coffee, whilst background music will be played by a string trio from the Birmingham Conservatoire.
