September has brought Autumnal changes to the weather but there is lots going on locally. Heritage Open Days are happening all week and over the weekend and there are some wonderful opportunities to see places or parts of places that are not usually open to the public. We went to a couple of events last weekend, one at the Devon & Exeter Institution in Exeter, and one at the South Devon Railway in Buckfastleigh, both free and very interesting & enjoyable.
Even more local to Sandays, Powderham Castle are open all week and running a special series of talks.
All details can be found at heritageopendays.org.uk
Devon Open Studios is also underway with many artists opening their homes and studios and larger gatherings of crafts in some venues across Devon. Look for the yellow signs when you are out & about.
