Recently I had a chat with Michel Ducuos about the origins of this country craft show.  He informed me that in 1974 the little market in the centre of the village was struggling to survive.  To safeguard the Friday markets he and his wife Heather and several craft workers in the area, began to sell their work alongside the small group of farmers.  By the August of the following year the craft workers had increased to about thirty five and as a result were able to put on their very first bank holiday event.  2010 will be the thirty fifth anniversary that this show has been running and there may well be a few celebratory events being held at the Fair.
