The Pocklington 2023 Heritage Festival was a great success! It was on for 3 days with the first day being a Roman Conference with distinguished speakers from far and wide. It concentrated on East Yorkshire but included Scarborough and Hadrian’s Wall. Day 2 was a school visit day and in the evening was our infamous Beanfeast which is a unique event like no other. Day 3 was a free family open day attended by the Roman reenactors Legio VI Victrix, the 1066 Battle of Stamford Bridge Society, Pop-up Museum, exhibition and book stalls from various groups. Colouring and drawing, & children’s games was well attended.
