Midsummer Stroll Around Trumpington: 23 June 1998

The Midsummer Stroll went from the Church Hall to Anstey Hall gateway, Maris Lane, the village sign, High Street, Whitlocks, Coach and Horses, War Memorial, Church and back to the Church Hall. The stroll was very popular, with 40-50 people taking part. This was the first walk organised by the Local History Group.
