Traditional Village Fete in beautiful Brightwell cum Sotwell
Have you ever hooked a duck or thrown a quoit? Are you looking for that vintage bargain or retro relic on the White Elephant Stall (the biggest in the world!)? Maybe you would like to buy that perfect painting or a pottery plate made by local artists. As ever you will be able to enjoy a Pimm’s or tea, cake or ice cream whilst listening to the Silver Band.
There will be an Aladdin’s Cave of hundreds of children’s toys and books as well as the Curiosity Corner which will have the most bewildering array of sports equipment, small furniture, mirrors, paintings, birdbaths, cushions, rugs, plant pots, chairs, walking sticks and there is bound to be an exercise bike (bought with misplaced enthusiasm).
By far the most enjoyable experience is visiting the Flower & Produce Tent. Each year villagers of all ages and abilities compete in different classes to win the coveted first, second and third prizes for their effort. Hotly contested are the vegetable categories, the flowers, cakes, produce, craft, photography and of course, children’s art.
This very traditional village fete will be held in the gardens of Sotwell House at the very centre of the village. It has glorious formal topiary, an orchard, a tennis court and even a moat with ducks!
Luckily, you will find it easily in this warren of a village because all you need to do is find the fabulous Red Lion pub on Brightwell Street OX10 0RT and follow the bunting.
All the proceeds go to support clubs and societies in the village.
