Pop along to the pop-up pub!

Ye Dragon pop up pub
Our delightful neighbours in Luddington are once again throwing the marquee flaps wide open to welcome everyone along to ‘Ye Dragon’ pop-up pub on the evening of Saturday July 28th from 7pm.

Ye Dragon will be popping up in the field next to the church, with all you could possibly want and more from a pub night out:

  • Lively music by The Feastie Boys
  • Delicious food from Justin’s Paella Horsebox
  • The most requisite of requisites – Digfield Ales

plus

  • Bantering Barmaids and maybe some pub games to boot.

Only a short hop, skip and jump from all surrounding villages – you’d be mad to miss it!

Archaelogical test pits being dug in Great Gidding this week

Archaelogical test pits being dug in Great Gidding this week

The University of Cambridge’s Higher Education Field Academy  (HEFA) is supervising  the excavation of a number of archaelogical test pits around the village this week. With the goodwill of  local householders supported by Access Cambridge Archaelogy a number of young people will be finding out how to excavate and analyse their findings. For the householders and Gidding History Group this will be a peek into the past.

Gidding Gobblers Café, Tour of Cambridgeshire update

Gidding Gobblers Café, Tour of Cambridgeshire update

Due to the Tour of Cambridgeshire cycle race we will not be opening this coming Sunday, 3rd June, as Main Street, Great Gidding will be closed for the majority of the hours that we would usually be open. You will not be able to gain entry to the Village Hall car park and it will be difficult/unsafe to cross the road during those hours.

Hopefully the weather will be good on Sunday 3rd June and we can watch the colourful spectacle of the cycle race passing through the village.

Thank you
Julie and Krystyna
