Bradford on Avon Walking Festival

Well, despite local news to the contrary, today definitely marks the start of the Bradford on Avon ‘Walking’ Festival, and not any other type of festival… despite what local vandals would have you believe!

The walks proved very popular last time and take in some of the stunning scenery in and around the Tithebarn Workshops and Barton Farm Country Park as well as the surrounding area.

Bookings can then be made in person at the Festival registration tent in Westbury Gardens, outside ExploreBoA (Tourist Information) from 09.00 on Friday 2nd September.

Bradford on Avon Calendar 2023

OK, so maybe it is a little early, but we thought we’d give visitors to our beautiful town the opportunity to buy a copy of our Bradford on Avon calendar for 2023. The format this coming year is A4 landscape, wall hanging and featuring a good space to write your messages, as well as images of Bradford on each of the 12 months. We have also included a little bit of information about local organisations and charities that operate in the area…

There are lots of ways to get your copy of the calendar:

  1. Visit SerenArts Gallery at the Tithebarn Workshops where you can buy your copy for £6
  2. Go to the Shop section of this website where you can have your copy posted to you for £7.95
  3. They are also available to buy from Bradford on Avon Tourist Information in Westbury Gardens

If you would like any more information about our services, please feel free to contact us at any time.

Doggy Paddle!

I was just dropping off some more Tithebarn Workshop leaflets at the Bradford on Avon Tourist Information Centre this morning when I came across this event organised by local pet shop and cafe ‘Doghouse‘. It brings a whole new meaning to ‘the doggy paddle’! I have to say that the dogs seemed to have much better balance than some of the owners!

Always great to see events that bring people to the town and a big congratulations to the Doghouse for this innovative idea.

Explore Bradford on Avon

We were just Googling local Bradford on Avon news, looking for a suitable subject to blog about and came across this recently introduced logo promoting the town and featuring on the new Tourist Information website.

We would like to say what a great job the Town Council have done on this updated image and site and lets hope it brings in more visitors to our town.

As always, there were a number of negative comments following the Wiltshire Times reporting of this revamp but the Tithebarn Workshops are fully behind it… ignore the naysayers!
