Advent Windows
For the last few years the village has joined in decorating the windows in their houses for Advent. From the 1st December you can walk around the village and spot the window for each day. Please do not post photos of that day’s window before the end of the day on Facebook. However, you are encouraged to post them afterwards!

Christmas at the The Plough and Fleece

On the last Friday before the big day (22nd Dec!) in the evening there will be prizes for the best/funniest/most original Christmas Jumpers in the evening

Our community pub will be open for drinks from 12 till two on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.

Horningsea Young Persons Orchestra at the Candlelit Carol service

The Horningsea Young Person’s Orchestra will be performing a piece at the Carol service on the 10th of December at 18:00. They will be performing a special Horningsea arrangement of Leopold Mozart’s Musical Sleigh Ride from his Divertimento in F Major. As this includes some percussion (such as bells and theoretically even a whip!) it can be played by people with very little or no musical experience, so everyone who’d like to be involved can be included. 
Rehearsals will be on the 2/3rd of December and also during the day before the Carol Service on the 10th.
