Thank you for visiting our Website.
Hardly a day goes by that something new for the archives turns up...Elvia Pycroft's collection of photographs from a church get together in 1987 were wonderful. Another very successful year almost over under the Chairmanship of Alf Wright...we all feel we have had the best and most entertaining programme yet. The AGM will shortly take place and next year's programme is soon to be published.

A new village sign
Good news...today the 1st May the two new signs at the end of Village Street have been put in place...EDWALTON VILLAGE.. is now on the map. Thanks to the efforts of County Councillor Michael Cox the way in and to the Church is now signposted very beautifully.
 
Dakeyne Farm in Canada
This year marks the centenary of the visit to Canada by Oliver Watts Hind of Edwalton Hall which led in 1915 to the establishhment of Dakeyne Farm in Windsor, Nova Scotia where several hundreds of Nottingham boys went in the following decades to be trained as farmers.
