We loved this year’s lantern parade - seeing the giants greet spring in daylight, dusk, and darkness was special. But is it more magical in the cold inky black of December…So! We ask you, what do you prefer?

Gool Peran Lowen!
Come and celebrate tomorrow as we process from back to The Old Chapel. It certainly won’t be as dark as our December parade but the glorious sunshine predicted for tomorrow will bring a different kind of magic to the proceedings!

As Friday draws nearer make sure you’re prepared! Forecast looks good but it sure is slippery out there. This year we are gathering outside Polly the cow’s milking barn NOT in the main house courtyard (thanks to Storm Goretti).

Today we were lucky enough to have Amy from share her research with us. It was a brilliant talk that led us through the history of processional giant making and got our History Club minds whirring with excitement for our very own giant procession coming up in exactly ONE month! Thank you to everyone who came, there wasn’t a spare seat in the house. Next month we’ve got Ben Sumpter taking us on another deep dive into mining history so see you then!
