Poynings Garden Fete

Saturday June 6th at 2.00pm in the Rectory garden. Teas, cakes, stalls, puppets, maypole, live music and a local clairvoyant has predicted that there will be a dastardly murder that day, maybe someone you know? If you’re not there, you won’t find out*. Proceeds in aid of running costs and general repair of our beautiful 14th century Church.

A long report on the people involved in the resistance.
“Villagers like us haven’t been offered huge pay-offs but our homes and the beautiful countryside around us have been left under a huge Mayfield cloud, which shows no signs of dissipating despite universal local opposition. This is the kind of rural community that is becoming rarer and rarer in the South East of England and it should be valued, not destroyed. But apparently it doesn’t matter what we think.”
