Visitors to the National Trust's Tudor Merchant's House in Tenby are having fun finding out about the superstitions and folklore that would have been part of everyday life for the population of Tenby in 1500. Intriguing questions - should you sleep lying down or sitting up? Is it good or bad luck to whistle while your husband is aboard ship? What should you do if you lose your knife? - are just some of the dilemmas posed in a series of scrolls designed to tempt visitors to unroll them to find the answers. In doing so, they discover quite how superstitious the Tudors were and especially so in Tenby which was a busy port at that time. Funded by money raised at the house through the National Trust's 2013 Property Raffle and designed and researched by Kate Measures Heritage Learning Consultants, the scrolls are proving a real talking point with adult visitors. House manager Angela Jones said: "We know how fascinated people are by the superstitions of Tudor times and this new interpretation is presented in such an informal and humorous way that it's great to see visitors comparing the scrolls and chatting amongst themselves." If you want to find out more about daily life in 1500s Tenby, the next 'Tudor Chat' is on Wednesday, July 9, at 7 pm, when Sue Baldwin, house seward and honorary librarian of Tenby Museum, will be talking about a day in the life of the Tudor Merchant's House. Booking is essential and tickets £5, including light refreshments, are available from the house or by phoning 01834 842279.
