Big news about Alford Craft Market at August Bank Holiday. It was the 35th anniversary this year, and to celebrate a big re-launch with lots of new events and entertainment. 

It took place as usual in the grounds of Alford Manor House, and there was exciting things to do for both children and adults, as well as all the craft stalls,  live bands in the Music tent and Morris Dancing around the town.
