After spending the morning in Ledbury I went on to the Textile Bazaar at Hellens Manor, near Much Marcle. There was an array of textiles on offer in one of the barns and it very much reminded me of a scaled down version of the Vintage Textile Fair in Manchester.
The manor itself is surrounded by lovely gardens, unfortunately I did not manage to participate in a tour of the house which dates from the time of the Domesday Book and looked to be very interesting.
In the evening John Gillow, author of 'World Textiles' - amongst other publications - was giving a talk and I would have loved to have been able to stay for this.
