Conisbrough hosts Christmas festival

The event, which is organised by Conisbrough Forward, will be held on Saturday December 6, from 10am until 4pm.

The town will be busy with Christmas themed events on the day, as Elm Green Lane Centre are holding a Christmas fair, Conisbrough Community Library will host a local history day run by Conisbrough Heritage Society, while the library volunteers are hosting their own fair and St Peters' Church is having a festive event in the church hall.

Conisbrough Forward have bought trees for the shops in Conisbrough to brighten up the centre of the village and Penny LLoyd-Rees, secretary of organisers Conisbrough Forward, said they would like to thank Wm Waites Cash and Carry for providing the trees at a discount price.

“Each shop has decorated their tree and will keep them for years to come,” Penny added.

“We would encourage the whole community to get involved with the events of the day.”
