Great aerial picture from Dr Gilbert Greenall on his way home. And now you know why this is called Big Hill! We had around 800 visitors but from this view we look miniature!

Biggest of thank you's to all that came on Monday, we hope you had a wonderful day. Please share your pictures with us or tag us Spring Fling Simonsbath and let us know what you thought of the day. We hope to see you again next year!

Thank's again to all the volunteers for their hard work and to the Greenall Family for letting us use this space.

Lovely and breezy Spring Fling Simonsbath!
Probably the best place to be in a heatwave- the top of a hill in Simonsbath!

River for cooling dogs off, plenty of water and lots of ice cold drinks and ice creams to keep everyone cool!
