Sunny and successful welcome day

Discover Newbury, our version of the National Heritage Weekend, brought 87 visitors to the cemetery, including some from our twin town Eeklo, Belgium. Five guided tours were taken up - what a pleasure not to need umbrellas! The new Angels, Artists and Authors worked well. Doug Larsen and Dave Clow were able to find ancestors' graves for several visitors, who were all very grateful.

Next Welcome Day is Sunday, 4th November. Guided tours available at other times by contacting Ros Clow:0163540188 or raclow@ntlworld.com
