Yetminster Street Fair

Yetminster Fair is one of the oldest street fairs in the region. It has been running almost continuously since the 13th Century under a charter granted to the Bishop of Salisbury for a fair “to be held in his manor of Yetminster”. The lively and unique atmosphere on Fair day complements the old world charm of the picturesque village, evoking memories of a bygone age and attracting visitors from far and wide.

Members of the William Barnes Society will be there to read a selection of William Barnes Dialect Poems
