winterbourn edwardian fete

Step back in time at Winterbourne with an array of exciting Edwardian entertainment. 

There will be music, laughter, competitions, performers and fair rides. Along the lawn there will be stalls selling their wares and delicious Edwardian Afternoon Teas will be on sale in the tea room. 

In keeping with the village fair feel, there will be a bake-off style competition for creative wares, preserves and cakes , presided over by a select committee of judges. Our colleagues at  Cadbury Research Library: Special Collections will be educating us on all things turn of the century in the Old Kitchen, with live demonstrations and the chance to see some of the works from the library. What weird and wonderful things did our Edwardian ancestors eat and why? 

If you still have energy after all that, you and your family can get dressed up in authentic clobber and have your photograph taken for posterity. The event is our crowning jewel of the year - not to be missed!

Entrance is £6 for adults and £4 for children and students. There will be a small charge for some activities.
