Fete of the Rye


At the weekend I attended the Peckham Rye Fete. It’s quite extraordinary that such an urban environment as Peckham can host an event more commonly associated with villages. But there we were sipping Pimms or cups of tea. Enjoying one of the many home-made cakes and stocking up on piccalilli. Selecting books, old and new, from the excellent book stall. And most delightful of all, cheering on the wagging dog show.

The Rye hosts a variety of entertainments; here’s a photo taken when a travelling funfair pitched up.
