Now Departing: The Village Hall Sessions
The Village Hall has been occupied once again. “Now Departing”, from Mr Steven Wilson's new album Requiem for a Village, goes live on YouTube today at 6pm. Further performances will follow close behind, so be sure to be signed up to the Parish Circular and keep a close eye on this site.
Upcoming events
An Evening in London
Mr Steven Wilson will be granted temporary leave from the village in order to be in conversation at London’s Bush Hall with our village pub landlord Mr Al Murray, followed by a signing session. Those who would like to partake in this ritual are politely reminded they need to secure their tickets beforehand.
