  21st November 2015 (Tuesday) 10:00 - 12:00 Christmas Fayre  

Christmas Fayre The "Ecclesfield in Bloom" Annual Christmas Fayre will be on the morning of 21st November 2015, in St. Mary's Church. There will be hand made gifts, cakes, and lots of other things to see and buy - all in aid of Ecclesfield in Bloom.

  Planters  

We are hoping to move two of the planters currently on Priory Road back to their original positions on Church Street. We think that the road and pavement works that necessitated their removal have finished, and they can again be enjoyed in their proper places.

We are also in process of replacing, and cleaning the white plaques attached to the planters, so if any firms would like to sponsor one, then please get in touch - e.g. by emailing .
(I don't have a photograph of the planters in their current position on Priory Road, but if somebody emails one to us then I will put it here).
