🌿 Step into Lydford's past and discover the stories hidden in our parish! 🌿

It's been 20 years since the Parish Hall was renovated and we warmly welcome everyone to join us on Saturday 20 June for *Lydford's Tales, Nature and Trails* - a morning of local history, nature and community.

Take part in a guided heritage walk through the parish, explore fascinating local history displays in the Parish Hall, or enjoy family-friendly nature activities in the Forest Garden. If you'd prefer not to walk, there will also be a live video link from the hall so you can still enjoy the experience.

Afterwards, stay for a bacon roll, a hot drink and a chat with friends and neighbours.

Whether you're a long-time resident or new to the area, we'd love to see you there. It's a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the place we call home and celebrate the Parish Hall's role in bringing our community together.

📅 Saturday 20 June
🕙 10:00am – 12:30pm
📍 Lydford on Fosse Parish Hall

All are welcome so please feel free to share this post with family, friends and neighbours.

🍰 We would also be very grateful for any donations of cakes to share on the day.

We look forward to seeing you there!
