​About Bell Meadow Day

The event is organised by the Bell Meadow Village Association which was formed on behalf of the Parish Council in 2005 by a group of volunteers with a keen interest in Bell Meadow after it was gifted to the village. Bell Meadow Day has now become an annual event, held on the Sunday of the August Bank Holiday weekend, when the whole village comes together to celebrate its rural heritage and to warmly welcome visitors.

 

   Now in its 18th year this traditional country fair, which celebrates the best of rural life, has become a popular event in the Essex summer diary, offering entertainment for all the family; there really will be something for everyone to enjoy in a wonderful rural setting.

 

  Daytime events from 12.00pm include demonstrations and stalls with traditional crafts, rural skills and ever popular activities including: Competition Tent, Pets Corner,  Pony Rides, Children’s Entertainer, Bouncy Castle, Refreshments, a Burger Van, Ice Cream, Paella and of course the Beer Tent!

 

There are traditional games & stalls plus displays of traditional rural skills and crafts, and agricultural machinery. Arena activities include Dog Displays and a Dog Beauty Contest plus family games and a raffle. With live music on offer throughout the day, the entertainment will culminate in the evening with the amazing ‘For Funk Sake’ who return to Woodham Walter by popular demand.

 

 Woodham Walter is a hidden gem of a village which boasts a traditional old-fashioned community feel. There is a primary school with about 100 children, 2 golf courses, a brand new holiday lodge park, 3 pubs plus the only surviving Elizabethan church in Essex built in 1563. The village is well worth a visit and on the day of the event, Sunday August Bank Holiday, Woodham Walter (just off the A414 between Danbury and Maldon) will be buzzing with excitement and atmosphere.

 

Bell Meadow Day is supported by local individuals and businesses.
