At the risk of setting off a pre-Christmas panic among readers when we still have more than three months to go, we felt we had to alert you to the newly released dates for Brocksbushes Christmas Fayre, which is over four days, November 9-12.
If you know your Christmas fayres, you will also know that this is the big boy, packed with unusual and individual gifts, great local produce and quality wine over three big marquees. This is the Christmas event for those who love Christmas and being ready for it well in advance (unlike us). Free parking, free entry, and the farm shop and tea room are open too. Mulled wine, anyone?
