Think of it as a glorified Farmer's Market, but with many, many stalls. Food and drink producers came from all over Wales for this event. Entertainment was provided by, among others, Welshpool High School’s excellent Jazz Band. Saturday looked to be a bit of a washout, but Sunday had some sun inbetween the dull overcast weather.

These two ducks were the star of the show. It seems they’re residents at the hall, unless anybody else knows any different. Some purple flower/plant in the orangery. My knowledge of horticulture is virtually non-existant.
