2023 Christmas Lunch
The event planned for October 2023 which was scheduled to show BB related films from the archive, and visit Grendon Hall, has now been re-scheduled to 2024. However in its place by popular demand ! We are having a Christmas Lunch Event at Grendon Hall and an optional ‘winter’ walk, from Yardley Hastings. Members and their guests will be assured of a thoroughly traditional gathering at this historic venue, with the usual Christmas fayre for Lunch, set in magnificent surroundings.
Wednesday 6th December 2023
Walking in BB Footsteps.(optional) Yardley Hastings. 10.00am - 12.00 noon
The day begins in the nearby village of Yardley Hastings and follows the footsteps of ‘BB’ that he relates in his book ‘The Countryman’s Bedside Book’ ( pages 80 – 83 ) Although this walk will finish at the Cowpers Oak element, and will return to Yardley Hastings approx 4 miles on surfaced roads (BB continued his walk into Ravenstone which is no longer accessible) For any members who haven’t got access to the book please ring the secretary who will be pleased to supply the necessary extracts. The walk will conclude at 12.00 allowing members to travel the short distance to Grendon to enjoy a traditional Christmas Lunch. Arrangement could be made to visit the tree by car, thus avoiding the walk, Arrangements with the Secretary are essential for this option.
