The ROYAL Afternoon Tea
Join Jill Townson for a special Afternoon Tea event.
The History
The British tradition of afternoon tea is said to have started with Anna the 7th Dutchess of Bedford in the early 1840's. The Dutches, always hungry by mid-afternoon would request to be served bread, butter, cakes, biscuits and tea. It soon became a fashionable pastime of the upper class to have Afternoon tea.
