The flag-making sessions begin this Saturday, 27th October, from 1pm until 3pm, at the Town Hall.
One of the organisers, Terri Welch says, “For 2019 we want to make medieval flags to decorate the Market Place. 2019 is the 800th anniversary of the Melksham Market Charter and special events will take place on the weekend of 28th and 29th September to mark the event.
“Initially we will plan the flags and designs we wish to make, then move on to the next stage. We would welcome anybody who enjoys design or sewing, not that these are the only skills needed. So come along and play your part in the decoration of our town.” Melksham Independent News 17th January 2019.
