  • Tuesday Fun

    A lovely historic walk on Tuesday night with our local historian Tony Blakely. Who knew that St Lukes church had an art deco window or that the new houses on the old school site are named after school dinner ladies.

    This was followed by a wonderful BBQ and great music with the Gregory Brothers & Friends at the Silver Hind. If you missed the music, the full band, Clockwork Carousel, will be performing again at the Silver Hind on Friday after the carnival procession.
