 Back to days of old for the 2013 panto with brave knights and lovely maidens. Be very aware of the supernatural skills of Morgan le Fay, look out for the witches and be astounded by Merlin and Son. As usual there’s a brave hero and a lovely heroine whose path of true love is fraught with problems. You will laugh with Laughalot and love the amorous bear called – Teddy. It’s all there in Camelot – the panto. |

Burnend (first recorded 1236) "End of the Stream" is where the Wye flows into the Thames. Nestling in the Chilterns alongside the river, the village has been the home of papermakers, lacemakers and brickmakers. Today Bourne End is a thriving village close to London and even closer to the open countryside of the Chiltern Hills in central southern England.
