By
Birchwood Cafe, Shap, is closed for a break (28th July - 18th August). We are suggesting Watchtree near Great Orton for Wednesday 29th July. Maulds Meaburn Village Institute has a coffee morning on Wednesday 5th August from 10.30 until 12.00 and we are suggesting this rather than the Pot Place, Plumpton.
