What's So Interesting About Kilmersdon?

Come and find out on the afternoon of Sunday 12th June with Local Historian and Trustee of Radstock Museum, Martin Horler. Martin will lead a guided walk around the village revealing the rich history of Kilmersdon answering questions such as:

Do you know the origin of the story behind the famous Jack and Jill nursery rhyme? Do you know when the first free school was built in Kilmersdon ?

When was the new Toll Road built ? Where was Kilmersdon Manor?

Why was the lock-up known as the blind house? The history walk will finish with afternoon tea at the Joliffe Arms.
