Patrick and the Town Crier led the Abingdon Boundary Walk this Sunday morning as part of Heritage Open Days.
The walk started round by St Helen’s Wharf.
There was also a morning walk about Victorian Abingdon around the Albert Park area, led by Jackie Smith – the town archivist.
In the afternoon, the Abingdon Traditional Morris Dancers were dancing in the Market Place.
Two other guided walks set off at 2:30pm.
One was the Lost Abbey Walk,
who went in search of the Lost Abbey.
The other walk was around the Edible Abingdon plots.
There was an information stall, on the Market Place, where people could sign up for the walks or pick up self guided walk leaflets.
In the Abbey Buildings, Mr Busby of Busby Bees was telling people about the history of bee keeping.
The Abingdon Traditional Morris Dancers arrived soon after to do some more dancing.
Lastly, the Lost Abbey walkers arrived for cakes and coffee.
Thankyou Backstreeter for your excellent coverage of the Heritage Weekend – and huge thanks to all those who worked so hard in the planning beforehand. There was so much to see, experience and enjoy – so many organisations, groups and individuals involved. Thankyou to all for showing what Abingdon was and is – a great community town to be part of.
