Walk and Talk: ‘Evesham Abbey Site: The latest news’

Join this Evesham Festival of Words hour long walk and talk to hear all the latest news about what’s happening with Evesham Abbey site. The site, long neglected, apart from a small number of allotment holders, has in recent years undergone a massive transformation. Gone is all the ivy on the crumbling walls, which are now being beautifully restored. The Cloister and Nave areas have been cleared of the debris of centuries and are ready for some archaeology to be carried out. The allotment holders are now all relocated to the south side of the plot where they will remain. Plans are being drawn up for the creation of fabulous heritage gardens which will be fully open to the public so that this beautiful and historic site can be enjoyed by all. (The work has all been undertaken by, and on behalf of, Evesham Abbey Trust).

The walk is on reasonably level ground but flat shoes recommended. Tickets: FREE EVENT but please register to attend by the day before (email: info@eveshamfestivalofwords.org.uk or tel: 07871285606)
