Litter Pick
2020-02-02 10:00 - 12:30
Once again this year we will be giving our village the annual spring clean. Anyone wishing to join in would be more than welcome – we will be meeting outside the village hall at 10am on Sunday 16th February. Depending on the number of volunteers, it usually takes us around two hours to cover all the lanes in and out of the village. Please wear suitable clothing and protective gloves, children will be most welcome but will need to be supervised. I will organise hi-vis vests, bags and litter pickers and will post the health & safety information on the village noticeboards so you can read at your leisure.
If anyone with 4 x 4 or tractor/trailers who could help drop off people and pick up bags along the way that would be most welcome – please just let me know if you can help – sarahwilson@comptongardenflowers.co.uk mobile: 07836 201611.
Our collection of litter will be gathered in the pound and Bath & North East Somerset council will pick-up wc 17th Feb.
On a previous occasion, when the weather was kind!

Village Group AGM and talk by Jonathan Foyle
2019-11-26 19:30 - 21:30 | Compton Dando Hall, Compton Dando Hall, Court Hill, Compton Dando, BS39 4JZ, United Kingdom
Why not join us for the Village Group AGM and see what we have been doing for the last year and have your say on what you would like us to be doing.
This year we are delighted to say that Jonathan Foyle will be giving a short talk on an interesting discovery.
In 2010, the elaborately carved, incomplete frame of an old oak bed was removed from the honeymoon suite of a hotel in Chester, to be auctioned. Three years later, Jonathan Foyle encountered it, expecting to use his training in history and archaeology to demonstrate a Victorian fake to its new owner. Instead, this talk reveals the evidence gathered over six years which shows it can only be an astonishing national treasure: the marriage bed of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York made by January 1486. It survived by leaving London in 1495 for Lancashire, then Yorkshire after the Civil War. In 1842 it fell into the hands of a Victorian fraudster who had no idea of its origin or meaning, but stripped and varnished it, and used it as the basis for a number of smaller, illiterate copies with arms of northern aristocrats, which he pretended to have discovered. The original royal crests of its royal inhabitants remain in his house. Now the story of this unique survival can be told.
