English Heritage Gift Membership - help keep heritage alive & strong
If you're looking for heritage gifts for anyone who loves British heritage, the English past and historic gardens, you could give them a Gift of Membership to English Heritage.
English Heritage care for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites from the prehistoric to the Medieval, the Roman to the Cold War. And they bring the story of England to life – you can stand and be where history has happened. Many of their sites will be known to you, such as Stonehenge, Dover Castle, Tintagel, Hadrian’s Wall and Kenilworth Castle.
Walk and stand where history happened!
English Heritage is a registered charity (no 1140351) and they work hard to help people discover history through experience and being in the places where it happened, rather than just reading about it in books. So you can walk in the footsteps of Queen Elizabeth I at Kenilworth Castle, or wander through the grounds of Down House, just as Charles Darwin did. You can visit Boscobel, where King Charles II hid from soldiers in the oak tree for a day, and wonder what it would have been like to have been a member of the family of the Dukes of Northumberland at Warkworth Castle.
So there’s plenty to see and do and English Heritage has lots of events on throughout the year.
Hadrian's Wall is under the care of English Heritage
English Heritage has 400 sites open to the public so there's lots to explore and plenty of autumn walks to enjoy.

English Heritage have a number of priorities:
- to inspire, thus creating an interest in history and times past to pass on through the generations;
- to conserve, caring for historic sites and artefacts, and being leading experts in the field of conservation;
- to involve more people in the work they do, including to boost member engagement through visits to their sites;
- and to have financial stability, in part by increasing the membership, and giving members a reason to stay with them.
