Heritage Coffee Mornings

With a break for the Christmas season our next coffee morning will be
in January 10.30 - midday at The Kings Arms on The Moor, Coleorton

Details here soon and on our monthly email newsletter >>.

If you have any questions about Coleorton families, buildings or life as it once was in Coleorton come and meet our friendly team, reconnect with old friends and make new ones. We enjoy hearing your stories and seeing if we can all help each other discover more about our local village. Also various publications about Coleorton life and memories will be on sale. There will be photos and articles to examine and please bring your own to show.

Entry including tea or coffee and biscuits £3. No need to book, just turn up. You'll be very welcome.

At previous coffee mornings as well as Coleorton folks we've welcomed friends from Leicester whose family used to run The Kings Arms and before that The Angel, and a couple from Melton Mowbray who had found a photo of the Coleorton Hall tenants and staff from 1919 and have discovered family links in Farm Town. Our Coleorton Heritage coffee morning on Saturday 22 February was attended by some interesting people. A couple who have lived in Coleorton for 40 years and brought up their family here, another couple who now live in Leicester and whose family ran many of the pubs in Coleorton, a lady from the south of England researching her family roots in the Coleorton, Staunton Harold and Swannington areas and a newcomer who has just moved into Peggs Green. Good to hear their stories and make new friends.
