The Village Society will have a stall on the Green this Saturday from 10-12pm selling their new book ‘Histon – On and off The Rails’.
The author, Geoffrey Smallwood, will be available to chat about the book and sign copies. Apologies, but purchases can only be made with cash not card.
Over 120 copies have been sold in the first two weeks and the society would like to thank everyone for their kind support . It has been wonderful to see the interest in the village’s heritage by all ages.
If you are a keen supporter of our village pubs or simply wish to soak up more local history, this is a great talk for you. Mark Donachy, the previous landlord of The Red Lion Histon, will attempt to present the pub you think you know in a wider context that will hopefully encourage a deeper understanding of the changing face of local pubs and the benefits they bring to our Society.
Talk begins at 7pm; Entrance & Bar from 6pm
Tylers are hosting their annual Macmillan Coffee Support morning Friday 10am till 1 at their High Street office, with home baked cakes hoping to raise a few quid for this great cause.
