Not a fan of fishing or rain? Well the good news is you can join us for a totally free interactive workshop on cavalry in the English Civil Wars where it's dry!

Fancy dressing up in some reproduction armour? How about holding a sword? Maybe you can even go for a spin on the hobby horse, we wont judge.

Fun for all the family, join us at the town hall 2:30-4:30.

It's been a while since the last Almonry project post, sorry about that! Yesterday the Manager donned hard hat and hi-vis and was on site for a progress meeting and site walk around. The roof has been completely stripped and the stone slates removed from site. Some of the original slates have been salvaged, redressed, reholed and stored ready to be put back on along with new stone slates.

Stripping the roofs has left the top of the Almonry exposed and looking very skeletal! It's fascinating to see all the timbers criss crossing each other, giving a whole new perspective and appreciation of the skill and techniques used in traditional building.

We were also joined on site by Architectural Investigators from Historic England, who have been looking at the construction of the building to help piece together the evidence of the different phases of the building.

It's all very exciting and we are learning new things about the building as the project progresses.

asparagus season may be over for this year but we just couldn't resist these gorgeous cards by Brittany Davies which perfectly evoke the growing heritage of The Vale!

Perfect for the grower in your life who loves their garden or allotment, there are six vegetable designs at £2.50 (which would also look beautiful framed) or a choice of two different concertina cards at £4.50 featuring seeds and tools or asparagus, chard, beets and carrots.

We're joining St Lawrences Church this Friday 14th Aug for a Children's Art Workshop. Drop in anytime between 10:30 and 12:00 noon at St Lawrences - no need to book. It's a free event but donations are welcome.

You will take inspiration from the beautiful stained glass to create your own paper 'stained glass' window to take home. There will be plenty of materials to experiment with! Here's just one example of what you could create.
