Wray Scarecrow Festival

North Yorkshire is a stunning place to visit and some of its little villages and towns can almost take you back in time. Not always in an architectural sense but into a feeling of what England could look like if we all just took a massive chill-pill and calmed the chuff down.

It’s in this vein that we host the Traynor’s at the hall giving them an overview of the job we’ve taken on (they sound almost as excited as we do!), chilled with them by the stream opposite and paid a visit to the Wray Scarecrow Festival which, like the year before has been made over this time under a fairy-tale character theme. The breadth of designs and the amount of time the locals must have spent on them is incredible and is a real credit to the villages sense of community spirit. The big field is full of tents hosting crafty wares and kids activities, it makes us feel pretty lucky to have this kind of thing (almost) on our doorstep.

The Traynor's visit to the hall showed just how infectious enthusiasm for a project can be. I think they were nearly as excited to get it started as we were.Skimming stones into Keasden Beck with the Traynor's
