  VILLAGE QUIZ - 28th April 7.30pm

  The return of the popular Village Quiz, organised by the Village Hall Committee.  Roger and Jackie Baker will be posing the questions, and residents of Ashbury, Kingstone Winslow and Idstone are invited to get together a team of neighbours (up to six in a team).  A fun evening, with prizes for the winning team, plus a light supper, all for £6 per person.  There will also be a bar and raffle. To enter your team please contact Margaret Smith (mbsmith5@hotmail.co.uk).  If you don’t have enough neighbours to make up a team, there will be an opportunity to join a scratch team, but prior booking is essential.  Who will win this time – Kingstone Winslow, Chapel Lane, Idstone Road, Wixes Piece or another team?!

  Annual 'Beat the Bounds' Walk - May 12th

  Meet on Saturday May 12th 8.30 am in front of the pub. Following an Ashbury tradition that is over 500 years old, on May the 12th we’ll be having our annual ‘Beat the Bounds’ walk. Historically used to confirm the boundaries of the parish, we take a more relaxed view these days and don’t quite do the entire boundary. Everyone is welcome, including children and dogs, and although the entire walk is about 12 miles you can come for as little or as much of the walk as you like. More info at http://www.ashbury.org.uk/leisure/welcomeevents/beat-the-bounds-walk/ or call Steve Treadwell on 710369. Come and explore the parish with lovely views of the vale and downs that you will only ever experience on foot.
