SUMMARY:An Outlandish Morning with Lord John Grey at Moorefields Estate
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT: If you would like to join our Outlandish Waitlist\, please email our Site Coordinator at Ben@historichillsborough.org. \nTake a trip to 1700s Hillsborough with Lord John Grey. Start your morning exploring the historic Moorefields estate\, once owned by Colonel John Gray. Conclude your early afternoon by following the paths of Jamie and Claire through the downtown streets. \n10:30-11:30am – Walking Tour at Moorefields- Join Lord John Grey at the historic Moorefields for some traditional English refreshments of biscuits\, scones\, and tea as you walk the grounds. In the fourth and fifth books of the Outlander Series\, Drums of Autumn and The Fiery Cross\, as well as in the fifth through seventh seasons of the hit TV series based on the books\, the main characters settle in a fictional Scottish community in North Carolina. The Frasers’ story intertwines with the realities of life in North Carolina in the 1700s and that of the Regulator uprising in and around Hillsborough\, making Hillsborough a natural location for this event. Moorefields sits on land originally granted to Hillsborough’s “real” John Gray\, a Colonel whose life circumstances overlap with the stories of both Lord John Grey and Jamie Fraser. After walking the grounds\, get a sneak peak of the 1785 home that still stands on the property. After exploring the house\, you’ll rejoin Lord Grey in historic Downtown.\n*Driving between Moorefields and Downtown takes about 10-15 minutes \n11:45-1:00pm – Historic Downtown Walking Tour: Rejoin Lord John at the Hillsborough Visitor’s Center before walking Churton and King streets to visit the places the Frasers would have seen as they navigated the colonial legal system and the Regulator Uprising of the 1770s . \nThis tour is in collaboration with the Friends of Historic Moorefields \n– Agenda \n\nGates Open at Moorefields at 10:15am\nA Walk with Lord John Begins Promptly at 10:30am\nTour the Lower Level of the Home Following the Walk\nDowntown Walking Tour Begins at 11:45am at the Dickson House (Hillsborough Visitors Center)\nTour concludes at 1pm\n\n– Tickets \n\nTickets can be purchased here: https://www.zeffy.com/ticketing/8a6c78f1-2874-423c-9e72-4a36dfcf8f63
