About

Drop in with the kids to make a witch, ghost or spider from upcycled materials with local artist Ally Goff.

And don't forget to sample the devilishly delicious homemade cake in our café!

Entry is free with donations welcomed (suggested donation: £2 per child). All proceeds support the upkeep of this 500-year-old building and help us continue putting on community events in the future.
