Fairytale fun at Whissendine school fete
FAIRYTALES & Legends is the theme of Whissendine School fete which is being held on Sunday 14th June from 1-3pm.

Structural changes have been made this year following a visit by Sir Roy Strong.
There is a yew hedge, a pergola, an orchard, a Bunny Guinness designed terrace, an orangery, a fountain garden, olive trees and a pool.
Opening hours are 1-5.30pm and there will be plants and teas for sale. Adm 2.50, children free.
