Thank you to everyone who supported Music @ Manor, on Saturday 4th July 2026. Hopefully those able to come along had a great evening listening to some great music from THE RETROS.
Notice
As announced on the evening this was the last Music @ Manor organised by the Fun Committee.
The Committee have been running the event for the last 25 years or so, even being featured in the national press (Sunday Independent, Aug 2005 – ‘Mind Your Manors’), but it is now time to depart the stage. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who, over the many years, has made the event possible: all those who have served on the Fun Committee, some who are no longer with us, and especially to Ian Simpson, who has been such a leading light over the years, but no longer well enough to attend; the army of volunteers who have assisted in setting things up and the clear-up afterwards; the Vernon Family, Goodwins and Dixons, all who have kindly hosted us over the years; the various bands, groups and orchestras; and of course everyone who has come along, whatever the weather!
The ethos of the Fun Committee has always been to give back to the village any surplus money raised. It is estimated that over the many years, and various events organised by the Fun Committee, more than £25,000 has gone to various good causes within village. This year we are pleased to be able to give both the Village Hall and Community Shed £132 each.
While it is an end of era for the current Fun Committee, we would be able to offer guidance to any new group who may wish to carry on with a similar village music event.
Thank you, and good night!
The Fun Committee…
