THE MODEL MARKET 11 was held on
SUNDAY 3rd November 2024
This year The Model Market was held a week before Telford, so maybe a few came to us and not venture further north!! It was also held in conjunction with the Village Hall's Craft Fair, the day before. Tickets for this show were sold at the Craft Fair - at half price - and quite a few took advantage of this offer. The day was cool, but no rain and, for a change, where usually we are inundated for the first few hours, and everything drops off rapidly after lunch, this year people were still milling around well after 2 o'clock, so we stayed open until 3.
Thanks to all who took part - traders and visitors.
Plus thanks to all the volunteer helpers in the K-9 Café and on the door.
