Forty Hall's Drawing Challenge

Have a think...What do you like most at Forty Hall?

It could be the scenery, maybe one of the rooms in the house, the pigs on the farm, or even the play area! Whatever you favourite thing is, why not have a go at drawing it this week.

Take a look at our instagram page to see a selection of the entries, from all age groups, which we have received so far….they’re all fab!

So why not have a go at drawing too, and we will display the entries on an online gallery on the Forty Hall website.

Later in the year, we will put all entries into a prize draw to win some Forty Hall goodies. The 3 age categories for entries are:

11 years and under, 12 - 18 years, and Over 18s.

Entries must be drawn, not painted, and must have a Forty Hall theme.

Please send a photo of your drawing to forty.hall@enfield.gov.uk, along with your name and age category.

So it's over to you...get drawing!

More ideas to get you started -

Creative ideas 1: Historic buildings

What do you think Elsyng Palace would have looked like? None of #Elsyng Palace survives above ground, so let your imagination run wild and draw a picture of what you think Henry VIII's palace looked like when it was new.

Creative ideas 2: Nature & Wildlife

How about drawing some of the animals or plants that you have seen in the grounds of Forty Hall. Whether its the pigs from the farm or the flowers found in the Walled Garden, we want to see your drawings of them!!

Creative Ideas 3: People of Forty Hall

Have a go at drawing of some of the people who may have lived or worked at Forty Hall over the years. You might choose to draw a cook in the Kitchen or Sir Nicholas Rainton himself!

Creative ideas 4: Anything related to Forty Hall

Or just do a drawing of anything relating to Forty Hall. You might choose to draw some of the fascinating nature & wildlife found around the grounds, or maybe the beautiful Forty Hall building...the choice is endless!

Creative Ideas 5: Autumn

Do an autumnal drawing of Forty Hall or the grounds. Leaves, trees, fungi, or an atmospheric picture of the house...the choice is yours!

So why not give it a go......and don't forget to have fun!!
