ASTON ROWANT VILLAGE CHURCH AND CHURCH LANE FROM 2 PM.

Thanks to the Chiltern View magazine, we had a fantastic turn out last year with an increasing number of children and families having fun. Please come join us this year and enjoy yourselves. There is something for everyone here.

Find us in the centre of the pretty village of Aston Rowant, well signed off the B4009, less than one mile north of M40 junction 6. Parking is roadside in the village, with limited spaces near the Church reserved for the disabled.

The Duck Races are on the Holbrook at Fiveways (a major medieval crossroad) in Church Lane about 400 yds from the Church. They are FREE and take place continuously from 2pm until 4pm. We lend you the ducks and you test your skills against your friends. Please wear your wellies as you are likely to encounter some mud!

The beautiful snowdrops are in the same location.

Aston Rowant Church will be open from 2pm until 4.30pm serving delicious cream teas. All proceeds from the teas are donated to the Church funds.

The Duck Races are organised by Aston Rowant Parish Council and run by their Footpath and Amenities Group. They also look after the snowdrop area by the stream encouraging wildlife and wild flowers to proliferate.

People from the Church and villagers make all the teas and also help with the overall planning of the event.

We hope to see you there.
