2024 Village Show
This year’s Village Show will be on Saturday 7th September 2024. Every house in the village will receive a copy of the show schedule in early August. We do hope as many of you as possible will enter (even if only 1 item!) and come along on the day from 2pm in the afternoon to see the exhibits, have some refreshments, enter the raffle, watch the prize giving, bring along books for the stall and  enjoy a “catch up” with friends and neighbours. We have been blessed in recent years with glorious weather for the show so fingers crossed that we are lucky again in 2024. The show is a lovely celebration of life in our village so do come and support the show.

2024 Best Kept Front Garden Competition
Once again, Peter Jackson from Scotsdales very kindly came along to do the final judging for this year’s competition. Many congratulations to the following (and to all who won best in area!):

  • First place: 1 The Green (Susanna Lester)
  • Second place: 59 Station Rd. (Gerald and Susan Dyke)
  • Third place: 6 Illingworth Way (Jill Hockley)

The winner will be presented with the Queen’s Golden Jubilee Cup at the Village Show in September.
