bbb Learner Band at the East Ilsley Sheep Fair

The Blewbury Learner Band are delighted to be playing at the East Ilsley Sheep Fair on Sunday 7th June, from 1230.

Sheep fairs have been held in East Ilsley, Berkshire since medieval times and at one point they became the second largest in the country after Smithfields in London, with drovers walking for miles to buy and sell. The fairs ceased in 1934 but were revived in the early 1970s as an annual village fete.

A great fun day out for the whole family!
