CHILHAM Keep, Kent, one of the best preserved Norman buildings, home of the 13th Viscount Massereene and Ferrard, is one of many historic buildings in Britain where the visitor can step back in time.

Here he can sit down to a banquet of the sort enjoyed by medieval land owners who used to live there.

Presented by serving wenches in velvet gowns, the menu includes such delicacies as spitroasted venison served with sauce prepared from Kentish crab apples.

Interested in this sort of thing, or in all the art and culture for which Britain is renowned? If you are, why not ask your travel agent for a copy

of the brochure issued by the British Arts Festivals Associations?

This tells you all about such famous events as the Edinburgh Festival, the Aldeburgh Festival, the English Beach

Festival and Glyndebourne.

Your agent will also be pleased to make the arrangements for your travel to Britain —by BOAC VCIO, of course!
