Day 18 'The Bakery Bears Advent Calendar 2024'
Added 2024-12-18 07:00:01 +0000 UTCGood morning everyone and welcome back to 'The Bakery Bears Advent Calendar 2024'
In today's festive adventure, Dan and Kay visit Kirkham Priory. This wonderful place is surrounded by gorgeous fir trees so it makes it the perfect seasonal setting for a little walk. Along the way we discover a fascinating link to D-Day and reveal its links to this year's 'England: A Castle Nation' series!

2024-12-18 08:22:25 +0000 UTCI remember seeing the priory from the bus. Very dramatic! And the connection with D-Day and therefore my Dad. Looking forward to the next part of the hat and more of the story, tomorrow.
