Welcome to 2024!
Happy New Year to all our readers... as always there is so much going on...
It’s always so lovely to welcome new businesses to our High Street and on page 10 of this
issue, Agnès Brown shares her passion for pottery with us. Pot en Ciel or ‘Pot in the sky’ started life in Wellingborough, but now it is settled into its new home in The Chapel above The Bazaar. Such an inspiring lady and an incredible place to relax and get in touch with your artistic (or not so artistic) side.
Our features writer, Stuart Barker, tells the
amazing story of John Graves Simcoe – have
the military, he was a leading light in making Toronto the thriving city that it is today. They still remember his life with a public holiday every August – Simcoe Day (page 17).
A new feature for this issue celebrates the traders on our vibrant Thursday market. Wonderful fresh, local produce brought to your market place. Our first trader ‘On the Market’ is The Village Grocer showcasing all their incredible freshly baked goods (page 22).
