As we reach the end of 2016 the vast amount of material gathered over the last few years needs to be sorted into an appropriate and manageable order. This will take priority in the New Year. There are so many interesting articles coming in, the task will not be easy.

Early in the New Year we celebrate Balsham Plough Monday on 9th January 2017. For anyone unfamiliar, Plough Monday is traditionally the first Monday after Epiphany or Twelfth Night.

The Balsham Ploughmen are a group of men who live in, or are connected to the village and they raise money annually for charities in Balsham by pulling an old-fashioned plough around the village, accompanied by the Cambridge Morris Men. This year they will start at 5.30pm at West Wickham Road/Rosy Green end of the village, finishing at The Bell approximately 10.0pm. For full information on their activities contact balshamploughmen@aol.co.uk

WISHING EVERYONE A PEACEFUL CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY AND HEALTHY NEW YEAR.
