"In the grounds of Charlton House is what is thought to be the oldest Mulberry tree in Britain. It was planted by James I in 1608 in amongst a whole mulberry garden that was to be used in the production of silk. However, what he didn't realise is that they were the wrong type of mulberry used for breeding silkworms."
I love this stunning converted coach house set within breathtaking Sundridge Park Golf Course.

Miss Baby Sol Live And Dj Airy Something
We are excited to bring the one and only Miss Baby Sol to the Fox & Firkin. Miss Baby Sol is a powerhouse performer who effortlessly weaves an atmospheric sonic tapestry of genre-busting sensuality. Miss Baby Sol is a British Soul artist born in the Democratic Republic of Congo. As a singer, Baby has worked with artists including Jamie Cullum, Jazz Jamaica, Laura Mvula, and Florence + the Machine. "I think she’s amazing and talented! I’m sure those of you who have seen me live will vouch for that, but here she is writing her own songs and doing her own thing. She deserves all the support she can get. You won’t be disappointed.” Paloma Faith On the decks will be the one and only DJ Airy Something. Fashion stylist, drag artist, DJ, and host of some of London’s hottest queer parties, Airy Something can be seen dressed like a goddess and playing mixes that draw people to the dance floor.
