Adderbury History Association – 16 November
Simon and Patrick Bradshaw will talk in The Institute at 7.15 pm about the familiar ‘Lampreys’ building. The building on Bridge Street dates to at least 1839. Simon and Patrick will reminisce about the agricultural merchant’s business that operated there— as well as Bridge Wharf and other locations in town — dealing in corn, cake, forage, seeds, coal, and coke. Visitors welcome at £5.00.
We meet at Lake Walk Car Park at 9.00 am – or just come along and find the group around the Lakes when you can. Bring strong gloves and if possible any loppers, rakes or spades. Coffee and biscuits are provided at break time and we finish by noon. For further details please contact Rachel Moffat at
The Adderbury Christmas Market is once again fast approaching and we’re sure you’re eager to get the date in your diary at the earliest opportunity! This year the great event will as usual be taking place at our wonderful St Mary’s Church in the village. A perfect venue for a truly lovely community event on the run up to Christmas. There will be stalls galore and the opportunity to buy teas, coffees, mulled wine and cakes, and of course to visit Santa in his grotto. The market opens to the public at 11.00 am and closes at 4.00 pm.
Adderbury Ensemble will be performing at 6.00 pm in St Mary’s Church. They will be playing Elgar Serenade for Strings and Tchaikovsky Serenade for Strings. Tickets at £20.00 are available at the door. Students and children under the age of 18 are admitted free if accompanied by an adult. (No admission for children under the age of 5.)
Christ Church Cathedral Singers are welcomed back for this popular FOSMA Christmas event which will take place in St Mary’s Church at 7.30 pm. Tickets at £15 are available from Adderbury Stores, Trish Fennell on 01295 811059, or
