Rachel Jackson, museum manager at Clitheroe Castle, said: “Visitors will be greeted by a costumed Victorian maid and shown into the kitchen where they will be served a glass of port or non-alcoholic Christmas punch and a mince pie.

“Our Victorian steward, will welcome them and join them for a drink, before sharing his experience of Victorian Christmas traditions.

“The steward will then introduce his guests to the house, which is home to the museum.”
