The GSB Band Hut and a Miscellany - Gislingham and Brome, Suffolk - 19th September 2020
There's a round-up of various things, from bike rides out to Mellis, a Cat in a box, the ongoing construction of a new road to re-route to B1077 to Eye, to a meet up of the Gislingham Silver Band trustees to see what can be done about the old band hut on the outskirts of Gislingham, built during the first World War and needing some attention in order to see it through the winter
