The event itself will showcase skills and trades in stalls around the Ancient Market Place. Including a mobile farm, a working Saxon inspired forge, leather work, flax spinning - which some of our Hive members have been involved in through the Fabric of Society and Kingston Flax and Fibre projects - beekeeping, a falcon display and even a place where you can dress up in period outfits.
This fun-filled and family friendly day will have lots of music, performances, re-enactments and demonstrations throughout!
