A Full House for June Next Market – Saturday 4th June 10.00am to 12.30pm There is such a lot going on in Silchester in June. For a small village we certainly pack a lot in.

Suzi and Jane take on the Market Café After seven years of volunteering, I would like to thank all those members of the Market Café team, past and present, who have turned up to provide cups of tea and bacon sandwiches month in, month out to our customers and stallholders. Before the Village Hall refurbishment this brave and merry band used to have to cook in the “corridor” that used…
Just a couple more weeks to our next Market, so a ‘long’ update from me! Whilst I’ve been out and about dog walking on our beautiful common, the general topic of conversation when meeting other walkers seems to have been about David from Devon Fishcakes and his amazing fresh fish, all the way from Brixham, or how much people are enjoying the locally sourced artisan cheeses brought along by…

A very big thank you to “treasured” old, and the many new, customers who braved the elements to visit us at our first Silchester Village Market of the year. We didn’t run out of cake; we sold more bacon sandwiches than ever before; and we were delighted to welcome lots of ‘little people’ with their Mums and Dads. Wyatts, our local butcher, nearly sold out. Valerie was greeted with a…
