Newington Uncovered - Heritage Open Days & Picnic


























Visit ‘Newington Uncovered’ this weekend

The annual Newington Uncovered returns this weekend with a Village Picnic and Heritage Events at St Mary’s Church on Saturday and Sunday (2:00pm - 5:00pm).

The free family event, part of the National Trust’s Heritage Open Days, is organised by Newington History Group (NHG). Events will reflect the theme - Edible England.

Discover Newington-grown foods and other aspects of village life through displays and exhibitions in the church. In addition, self-guided Newington heritage walks will be available to download from the history group’s website www.newingtonhistory.uk

The picnic, in the church grounds, will start at 1:00pm on the Saturday (or, if wet, Sunday). Bring your own food (look out for tasty ideas on NHG’s Facebook page) but no alcohol. Other refreshments will be available.

It’ll be the first main village social event since lockdown. You are requested to wear a mask while inside the church.

To allow for social distancing at the picnic, please book in advance by messaging via the event on NHG’s Facebook page or Email newingtonhistorygroup@outlook.com
