We are always thrilled to welcome back Lady Mabel College alumni to Wentworth Woodhouse.

Today former students - and roommates - Sue, Catriona & Linda have been back to retrace their footsteps 50 years since they enrolled in their studies.

We have loved hearing stories of playing badminton in the Marble Saloon, summer balls, and day-to-day life from meals, laundry and queues for the telephone.

We hope you enjoy your visit and trip down memory lane today - but no shuttlecocks in the Marble Saloon! 🏸
