Visitors to a historic house experienced life as it was like in the 1930s at a Living History day.
The restored servants’ basement at Ickworth House transported hundreds of people back in time to enjoy Stir Up Sunday, a day when people made Christmas puddings.
Everyone in the household would have a go at stirring the mixture and making a wish for good luck before the traditional sixpence was added.
The actors also practised their dancing ahead of next week’s event at the house, the Servants’ Ball.
Aimee Clark, visitor reception manager, said: “These events really bring it to life.
“The actors don’t talk to the visitors, so their stories are explained by the guides.
“A lot of the visitors come back in later in the day to see what has changed, and what people are doing next.”
