Slideshow: Time rolled back for Regency and Victorian events in Leamington
The event was organised as part of Heritage Matters’ Leamington Looks Back festival, which also held a Victorian Sunday at the Pump Room Gardens on Sunday.
Anne Warren of Heritage Matter said: “The costumes people wore at the ball were fabulous - people really did look the part. The venue is so beautiful.”

And around 300 people enjoyed Punch and Judy and magic lantern shows at the Victorian Sunday, while people also took their own picnics to eat while listening to Victorian music by the Dunchurch Band.
