Make & Mend Festival takes place at the beautiful Kirkleatham Walled Garden in Redcar.

 

Nestled within the historic Kirkleatham Estate, Kirkleatham Walled Garden is a beautifully restored 18th-century garden space full of character, colour and charm. Once a thriving kitchen garden, today it is a vibrant community hub where heritage meets creativity — the perfect setting for a day of making, mending and mindful craft.

​

Surrounded by flourishing borders, heritage glasshouses and peaceful green spaces, the garden offers a calm and inspiring backdrop for our workshops and activities. With a mix of indoor and outdoor spaces, there’s room to gather, learn and create together — whatever the weather.

​

For Make & Mend visitors, the Walled Garden becomes a welcoming creative retreat for the day — a place to slow down, share skills and celebrate the joy of handmade in a truly special setting.
