It’s a bit of a damp start here, we had a burst of rain about 7 last night, then the worst of the rain moved in sometime overnight. Great for you all as visitors, as you avoided it, but not go good for those of us in tents, and for us to break the festival down in.

We closed with 9 Gold b**rs on, 15 Midrange B**rs and 6 Dark B**rs. There were 13 Ciders and 3 Perrys left on.
We hope whatever day you visited you had a great time and sampled some new b**rs and maybe found a new favourite.

Today is a Ticketed day, and the last day too, there is no tickets on sale on at the door.

Today’s weather is predicted to be about 19*C when we open, rising to 24*C and then dropping to 19*C at the end of the night. It predicted to be generally sunny skies and a moderate breeze, this is likely to be slight showers in the later part of the afternoon/early evening, although the worst is currently forecast for early Sunday morning when we will all be in bed.

We recommend you wear good footwear so you don't stub a toe on the track or platform edges, most of the year the site is a railway museum, so while we cover off as many of the hazards as we can we cant cover everything.
