The annual Newton Bromswold fete was on Saturday 4th July. The setting was a beautiful glade, with dappled sunshine. (See photograph.)
It was a friendly and local event with the Rushden Mission Band performing a series of popular tunes.
Local author, Philip Wright, was giving out free drinks on the hot day, while showcasing his work. (Nene Herald will include a review of his book “Valley of Nene” in our September issue.)
Local artist, David Hawker, was sketching portraits, at the amazingly low price of £5.
A Children’s Fancy Dress competition was held, and the winner was picked by Rushden’s Mayor, Cllr. Janet Pinnock.
