By the time this goes to print, we will have just finished running our two murder mystery evenings, performed for us by the Main Stage Theatre Company. These are always really popular nights which meant that the group were able to perform to capacity audiences. We have to thank the cast and crew for putting on two such professional and enjoyable shows. The profit is going towards our excellent new sound system.

We are delighted to say that after the great success of our Murder Mystery Supper night, ‘Murder in the Mailbox’, performed in Smeeton Westerby Village Hall on 13 and 14 June, we have been invited to perform it once again at Tur Langton Village Hall on Friday 4 July.

On Saturday 6 September, 2-4pm at the Kibworth Community Hub

Brickfield House Market Harborough LE16 8XS opens on the 20 June, 12-4. A two-acre garden with lovely views overlooking the Welland Valley.

Our mill once again opened its doors to the public over National Mills Weekend 2025. Over the two days volunteers showed 70 visitors of all ages around the mill. They explained the history and operation, whilst also highlighting the 200 examples of graffiti and apotropaic marks made by millers over the past 300 years. We were blessed with exceptionally good weather. Whilst most visitors were local, some had travelled from as far afield as South Wales to visit the oldest surviving post mill in Leicestershire.
