Tour: A Guided tour of Perrycroft, Malvern
Saturday 6th June, 2.30 p.m.–4.00pm:
A guided tour by the current owners, who have recently restored the house.
Perrycroft is a distinctive Arts and Crafts house designed by C.F.A. Voysey in 1895, marking his first major commission and helping establish his signature style. Built as a small country retreat for John W. Wilson—an industrialist and MP—the L-shaped property includes a lodge, stables, and coach house, and is closely integrated with its landscape. The cost includes refreshments and time to explore the gardens; however, the steep terrain makes it unsuitable for those with limited mobility, and the visit is offered at cost.
