We opened the Heritage Centre on Sunday especially to meet our visitors from our twin town of Beaumont le Roger. We even added a couple of French classics for decoration!

James: Been out and about in your classic today? It was a sort of ‘Deux Chevaux day’ in my hometown.

A memorable performance by the wonderful Wotton Silver Band on Wotton Hill this weekend.

We’re so very lucky to have this outstanding brass band - established as the Abbey Band in Kingswood in May 1894. It relocated to Wotton in May 1925.

The band’s next performance is at the Little Village Vintage Show on Sunday, 10 May.

Today at the Wotton Heritage Centre, family and friends of our Town Crier George Carpenter gathered to dedicate a bench to both George and his late wife Pauline. George gave a moving speech giving credit to Pauline for all the support she gave him throughout their lives together.

The bench was funded by subscription from local residents who gave generously to ensure we have a lasting tribute to the couple. The bench is located in alongside the Heritage Centre in The Chipping, which George helped to establish in 1994, and in George’s words: ‘the perfect location’.

With grateful thanks to the Falcon for their support.
