A raffle prize for “Race Night” in Colmworth. There are no real horses but there are videos of horse races and we can bet on the outcome. All proceeds go towards the maintenance of the historic St Denys Church. As with so many old village churches, it is a never ending battle to keep the buildings free from the ravages of (among other issues ) leaking roofs and death watch beetle. I am particularly fond of the Lady Katherine Dyer Tomb and poem dating back to the time of the Civil War in 1641. Are we once again on the brink of a Civil war or at least civil unrest?
