HURRY - The temporary Riding and Heritage Day Display will be taken down on Monday 13th July, so do come in during the next few days if you are interested in the history of Bodmin Riding and Heritage Day!

Come into Bodmin Town Museum and see our temporary display to find out about the origins of Riding and Heritage Day!
Saturday 4th July was Heritage Day - there were lots of stalls in Fore Street, re-enactments, traditional music events on Mount Folly and musical events at different venues. At 1 o'clock there was a children's dance and parade through the town and so much more! It was very well attended and definitely a great success.
