Can’t guarantee that the weather will be this Christmassy, but Chasewater is beautiful all year round. Come an join in the fun…

Here’s a chance to get into the Christmas spirit today…  there’s a Christmas Fayre being held at Chasewater Innovation Centre. At the same time, you can check out the Santa Specials at Chasewater Steam Railway, and take a wander around the lake – now well on the way to recovery after recently being drained.

There will be stalls from local artists and craftsmen, face painting, carol singers, a brass band and beer brewed on site by the Beowulf Brewing Company from 10am to 4pm on Saturday 15th December 2012.

Crafters from the Forest of Mercia, a team dedicated to wildlife preservation, will also be showing some of their work, with the opportunity to buy some of their wares, including hand-carved spoons, bowls, birdhouses or feeders.

There is also an exhibition of work from Bob Bridgstock, an oil painter whose work is based on photographs he takes in Cannock Chase Forest. His work is showing until January 3rd.

Chasewater’s Beowulf are the other brewery in Brownhills, and fine ales they produce indeed. Tasting of these excellent beers will be on offer.
