The wonders of stone carving will be brought to life at East Riddlesden Hall on September 4.

A specialist from the West Riding Stone Carving Association will give demonstrations between 10.30am and 4pm.

A spokesman said: “You don't have to look far to see how stone has been used for hundreds of years.”

The event is free with normal admission charges to East Riddlesden Hall.

Also at the National Trust manor house are Wild Art Weekends where people can create artwork using materials from the grounds.

They run at 1pm and 2pm this Saturday and Sunday, (August 20 and 21), and September 3 and 4.
