Archery • Barrel Racing • Children’s Activity Tent • Climbing Wall • Competitions • Craft Tent • Drama • Guided Walks • Music • Poetry • Re-enac…tments • Storytelling • Tolkien Tent • Wildman of the Woods. The whole day is family friendly with lots to see and do.

This year there will also be a celebration milling and baking within the newly refurbished Sarehole Mill, the basis for Tolkien’s mill in ‘The Hobbit’ and ‘The Lord of the Rings’, the mill is worth a visit on its own.
