More InformationBRAMPTON BRYAN SCARECROW & FLOWER FESTIVAL – SUNDAY 2nd AUGUST 2026
The historic village of Brampton Bryan is preparing to entertain you and your family at another spectacular festival. Book a guided tour of the Castle and learn about the Civil War sieges. Follow this year’s “Spectacular Sports” Scarecrow Trail through the village; marvel at the ingenious “sporty” flowers in the church. On the cricket pitch you can settle into the BBQ, teas, coffees, delicious cakes and ice creams; you can browse the stalls, have a go at archery or skittles, enter your dog in the fun Dog Show, have your face painted, step back in time with a ride in the Strawberry Cart – or just relax to the sounds of the Knighton Town Silver Band.
We look forward to seeing you! (PS flowers open 3rd and 4th too!)

Darker Tales & Fairy Stories for Grown Ups...
All good stories get better the later and darker it becomes.
Join storyteller Gav Cross and perhaps a late night ghost or two.
Certainly a twist on some old classics.
Almost certainly a smile.
Perhaps a nervous glimpse over the shoulder?
As we scratch our way into the darker routes of the stories we think we know.“Gav Cross treats children like they're horrible and adults like they're children and the results are hilarious and magical. Gav brings energy, joy and a refreshing approach to traditional storytelling, getting the audience involved and keeping them on their toes with the unexpected twists and turns of his tales.”
Larmer Tree FestivalThe audience were hooked by every word as they were led a merry dance through stories.”
Pound Arts“... just on the right side of darkly comic... ”

11:00 - 17:00 2nd September 2026
Wollerton Old HallMore InformationGarden open for charity
Four acre garden created around C16 house (not open). Formal structure creates variety of gardens each with own colour theme and character. Planting is mainly of perennials many in their late summer and early autumn hues, particularly the asters.
Created 40 years ago around a Tudor house (not open), this quality garden has been extensively filmed by all major TV channels and also Japanese TV.
Designed by the owner, Lesley Jenkins, this outstanding garden combines a strong structure with clever planting combinations using perennials. The early spring shows of anemones, hellebores and trilliums are followed by tulips, aquilegias and oriental poppies. The summer roses herald the arrival of the delphiniums which in turn give way to the dominance of stately hollyhocks and vibrant phlox. August sees the hot garden ignited which still burns when the asters and euonymus seed capsules arrive in September.
Featured on Monty Don's British Gardens- Ep3 (2025).
Admission £10. Children free. Light lunches from 12:00. Cream teas from 14:00. Plant sale.
