Why ‘Woodhouse’?


Woodhouse Recorder Week was founded in 2004 and took its name from Woodhouse Copse, a beautiful Arts and Crafts house in Surrey where the 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2008 recorder weeks took place. Over the years the course has become ever more popular and we have found ourselves in need of a larger venue, hence the move to Christ’s Hospital School this year.
