The 24th Annual IW Hedgelaying Competition Saturday 27th February 2016 from 10am until 4pm

Will reigning Open champion Os Hoskyns return to defend his hard-won title? Will the mainlanders carry off the prize this year?

Turn up and see!

This year’s site is the same as last year at Parkdown Barns, Calbourne Road, Newport, PO30 4HP (Half a mile west of the Blacksmiths Arms, on the opposite side of the road).

The site is provided once more by kind consent of Mr and Mrs Mike Morris.

Entry is free for competitors and observers; spectators are welcome.

We very much hope that you will be willing to be involved in the competition as spectator, supporter or competitor.

As usual there will be a glittering array of prizes and a very good chance of winning one.

Note that access to the site will be quite soft going, although the site itself is free-draining and in ideal condition for the competition.

So only 4x4 vehicles are likely to be able to access the site itself, and there will be parking up in the farm yard by the road for all other vehicles.
