Events - 2014

Summer Picnic June 7th 2014
After a rainy start the sun shone and a good time was had by all.

Visitors were entertained by Field End Infants Drumming Club, a Tai Chi demonstration, St. Lawrence Players performed their very own Legend of Eastcote House. For the more energetic, Children’s Races, and a Tug of War. The unbeaten Champions are still The Case is Altered PH. More competition needed next year! Not to be left out, our canine visitors had their own show with an Elvis lookalike to steal the show. Cllr. Catherine Dann Mayor of Hillingdon & MP Nick Hurd joined in the fun and were able to admire the Classic cars and explore the many stalls.

Restoration work is due to start in August, so, sadly :o( the Friends of Eastcote House Gardens must say farewell to all our dedicated supporters for the rest of this year.

WE WILL BE BACK IN 2015 WITH A FULL PROGRAMME OF EVENTS WATCH THIS SPACE!! :o)

Archaeology Open Day 12th July 2015
The culmination of this year's two-week dig, when lead archaeologist Les Capon showed over 150 around the site, explaining what has been discovered and showing some of the finds. The guests included the Mayor, Counsellor George Cooper and his wife, Judith, the Mayoress. The Stables and Dovecote were open to visitors, and The Gardens Cafe was also popular. And the digging continued to the last minute!
