Late summer Garden Party on Elmsett Green.

 A correspondent from Elmsett has sent an enticing invitation to their Garden Party. This will be held on the Green, pictured above, on Sunday 4th September between 2.30 p.m. and 4.30 p.m..  There will be the chance to enjoy a beautiful garden against the backdrop of a 16th Century thatched cottage.  A perfect English scene!

Stalls will include second hand books, raffle, tombola, plants cards and glass, home produce and bric a brac.  Village calendars go on sale that day too.

This year there will be a Best Dressed Bicycle competitions for the children and the Elmsett Fellowship Brass band will be on hand to entertain.

There is ample parking close by.  

All funds raised will go towards supporting St Peter's church, Elmsett.

'A lovely event to end the school holidays!'

Thomas Gainsborough painted Elmsett Church when living in Suffolk between 1750 and 1755.  The painting is now in the Bowes Museum, Castle Barnard.
