Sulgrave Village Advent Calendar Windows 2016 – No. 24 – Chapel Stones, Little Street, and A HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.
December 25th, 2016
Here we are at No 24 on Christmas Eve, appropriately on the site of the former Baptist Chapel. Our thanks go to all who helped with the planning and execution of this wonderful pre Christmas event (or events!), especially Shrimp, Ken, Annie and Ingram (currently in hospital after a skiing accident and to whom we all send our very best wishes for a speedy recovery). Our thanks also go to all those who went to such trouble to decorate their windows, to the great joy of villagers and visitors alike.
