Unfortunately, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to cancel this weekend’s Makers Market at The Old Duke on Saturday 24th October, due to the weather forecast.

It seems Storm Austin has other ideas for the weekend ! ⛈️

We’re so sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but the safety of our wonderful traders and customers will always come first. ❤️

Thank you all for your understanding and continued support. We hope to see you all at our next Makers Market! 🛍️✨

Please stay safe and take care this weekend. 💛

We have 2 weeks before this country fayre, its us a well worth charity to support as they are giving back to the local community by regenerating the area to encourage families along, to be apart of the country size, and to let the children, and maybe some adults the historic parts of the nature trail which have been uncovered already. So all you traders out there, who are free on the 27th of September, let me know if you are interested in this event and let's get behind this charity
