A NATIONAL Trust townhouse in the heart of Salisbury is set to reopen following a winter closure.
Work has been ongoing at Mompesson House, in the Cathedral Close, in recent months.
Behind-the-scenes work concentrated on bringing different aspects of history to the different spaces within the house.
Visitors will be able to explore the house, garden, and second-hand bookshop.
Site manager at Mompesson, Emma James said: “We invite everyone to come and see what’s new and spend time with friends and family in this very special place.”

Volunteers will give introductory talks and provide an insight into the history of the house informing visitors of the people who formerly called Mompesson home.
Collections and house officer, Gee Cooper said: “It’s been exciting to do something quite a bit different this year. We’ve gone back to the drawing board to try and capture what is so special about Mompesson.”
The house will be open to visitors from Friday, March 10 and open from 11 am – 4 pm, Friday to Tuesday.
