Whatever else you may be thinking of doing this weekend, if you are in England don’t forget to look in at Hall Green’s unique Middle-earth Weekend in and around Sarehole Mill in The Shire Country Park here in Birmingham. There really is nothing else like it anywhere in the world.
Of course there are many attractions at the weekend that are to do with world renowned author JRR Tolkien who lived nearby as a child and who took his ideas for the landscape and the people of The Shire from his surroundings in old Sarehole - a surprising amount of which can still be seen today.
But our two-day event attracts all who like the deliberately old-fashioned family atmosphere with lots of activities and medieval crafts, blacksmith, dancing, singing, drama, guided walks and tours and much else besides.
Let’s all make the most of all this while we can!
