Horningsea Herald September 2018
Here’s September’s Horningsea Herald.
The end of summer draws near, but it’s not fully over until we press our crop of Horningsea apples…! The Ninth Apple Pressing Day is on the 29th of September. The current crop seems to be falling faster than the temperature, but we’ve never run short of apples yet.
There’s also a big event in the church this coming Saturday:
“Heritage Open Day: Extraordinary Women: What did you do in the Great War Great Grandma?”
Heritage Open Day-Free event Saturday 8 September
At St Peter’s Church, Horningsea:
Extraordinary women: What great-grandma did in the Great War
FREE event, with walks, talks and bell ringing
Hear about Lady Sybil Grey, who went to Russia and met the Tsarina and Rasputin
Drop in anytime – refreshments available all day

HRA Apple Press Day
Saturday, 29th September, 13:00-17:00, village green
It’s the ninth annual Horningsea Apple Press on Saturday the 29th of September at 13:00.
Bring your own apples from the garden, some empty bottles (and just a bit of elbow grease!) and take your self-pressed apple juice home with you. As with previous years all apples will be placed in a communal pile for pressing.
On the morning of the Village Apple Pressing day we’ll trawl public apple trees in the village to start the “communal apple bucket”. If you fancy doing some scrumping, whether for the community pile or for yourself, then meet on the village green at 10:00. We’ll finish at 12:00 with the main event starting at 13:00.
Email hra.events@gmail.com or ring Chris on 07739 578 612 for details.
