A candlelit procession lighting up Gill Banks

Saturday 31st October at 6.30pm

The people of The Gill invite you to join them for a short full-moon celebration when we will follow the candle lit lower path into the dark wood and return by the upper path. About a hundred different pottery ‘spike lights’ have been made to light the way by local people. When we return there will be a few cakes, spooky food and drink in some of the Gill houses. We suggest a contribution of £2 per family and the individual handcrafted lights which make into table lights, will be on offer at £2 each. The absence of torches which dazzle the eyes, enhances the experience.

Test runs have impressed us with the unusual experience of walking in the dark , beside the stream with the only light coming from hundreds of candles that light the way every few yards.
