Harvington is a moated medieval and Elizabethan manor-house south-east of Kidderminster. Many of the rooms still have their original Elizabethan wall-paintings and the Hall contains a series of priest-holes.
During the 19th Century Harvington Hall was stripped of furniture and panelling and the shell was left almost derelict. But in 1923 it was bought for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Birmingham, which restored it and now opens it to the public. The Elizabethan House was built in the 1580s by Humphrey Pakington. In 1644 it was pillaged by Roundhead troops. The priest-holes were built in the time of Humphrey Pakington, when it was high treason for a Catholic priest to be in England.
A variety of light lunches and afternoon teas are available in the Tearoom, along with home bakes.
Gardens in Harvington Hall include the South Garden, the Elizabethan malt-house and the Georgian chapel. There is also a North Garden and a path all round the edge of the moat.The Malt House still has its 18th-century malting-kiln, part of the malting-floor, lime-ash areas and the wooden hoist for raising sacks of barley and has been tuned into a visitor and education centre.
A gift shop is open and sells small items and those with historical relevance to the hall.
