Workshops for children include baking and traditional corn dolly making. Our shop and cafe will be open together with bookable guided tours of the windmill.

    • My very precious watch must have fallen off yesterday afternoon on or around the lordship lane area. Please, please if anyone has found it please please let me know. 
    • Loving the irony of a thread which is supposed to be "Rachel Reeves yeah? she's as bad as Liz Truss!" which is clearly not true - but has now morphed into some people praising Kemi Badenoch - someone who may ACTUALLY be much worse than Truss. She is barely in touch with reality     I mean: WTF is she on about here:   https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/kemi-badenoch-lunch-breaks-are-for-wimps-and-sandwiches-are-not-real-food/
    • In the past there has been a spate of thefts like this  around days like Mother's Day. I had all mine stolen once, recently planted up. When I phoned my insurance company, they would only pay out for the window boxes, not the plants and compost, so I didn't bother pursuing it. The police said there had been lots of similar reports. I now chain mine to the window sills.
