Roll up, roll up.

The event at the Stalbridge Village Hall went very well. In co-operation with the Dorset County Museum 'pop-up' display, Dorset Diggers and the Stalbridge History Society it is a weekend history event for the village. The coffee/tea and home made cake were excellent. c.200 people visited our displays on Saturday.
