Sunday & Monday 3rd & 4th May 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
11.00am – 17.00pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Run by Volunteers – Raising Funds for the Local Community<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n The Cropthorne Walkabout is an annual event which falls on the Sunday and Monday of May Day bank holiday. It is run by volunteers to raise funds for the local community and the up keep of our lovely church which dates back to the 12th century. Every year the church is adorned with a flower festival which fills it with beautiful aromas and is a sight to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Walkabout is a great day out for all the family. We have live music, a variety of stalls selling everything from fruit and veg, plants and flowers, tombola, ice cream, craft stalls and, of course, a beer tent as well as tea, coffee and cakes. There is a climbing wall for the kids, a miniature steam railway, a dog show, kids play area, Morris dancers and a lot more besides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The highlight of the event is the open gardens. A lot of the local residents open their gardens so you can visit the lovely thatched cottages and houses which date back centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, come along and have a wonderful day out with us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Sunday & Monday 3rd & 4th May 2026 11.00am – 17.00pm Run by Volunteers – Raising Funds for the Local Community The Cropthorne Walkabout is an annual event which falls on the Sunday and Monday of May Day bank holiday.
