  • 08 Sep 2024
  • In person
  • Pre-booking not required

A day of discovery based at the Oxford Arms, an ancient coaching inn. Explore routes of Kington through a heritage photography stroll and a virtual pub crawl - or have a go at building a bridge for a drover's sheep!

Explore Kington from the comfort of a bar stool! We invite you to drop in to the Oxford Arms for a virtual pub crawl around Kington. Shown every hour and half hour from 10.00 to 16.30 in the Oxford Arms' barn, this 7 minute audio visual presentation charts the many inns and taverns in Kington's history, offering facts and possibly some fiction! Afternoon teas also available from 12 onwards.
Or if you are feeling more active, take part in a heritage photography stroll around the historic core of Kington. Leaving from the Oxford Arms pub at 14.30 this stroll will last an hour spotting the unusual and interesting features and buildings that tell the heritage of this market town, whilst offering participants the opportunity to improve their architectural photography. No experience necessary, just come with a camera or your smartphones.
Meanwhile, visitors, and especially children, are invited to think about the town's droving history and design and build their own droving bridge to take the weight of a small sheep! - using a range of craft and scrap materials. Drop in anytime 12.00 - 16.30
