It is another month, and that means another slew of Congleton 750 events.

Next week will see a recreation of medieval Congleton on Market Square.

Congleton Town Council is encouraging members of the public to visit Congleton Library to view the wonderful diorama of medieval Congleton. The three-dimensional model village will be on display from Monday 12 until Saturday 24 September 2022 as part of Congleton Heritage & Antiques Festival (10-25 September).

The medieval masterpiece, created by local volunteer Jenny Unsworth for the town's 750th Charter Year celebrations has previously been on display in July for the 'Behind Closed Doors' exhibition at the Town Hall.

Over 400 school children and hundreds of visitors have already been amazed by the hand crafted village, featuring Dane Bridge and more than thirty handmade buildings and houses full of busy tradespeople and artifacts.

Congleton Town Mayor, Cllr Margaret Gartside said: "We are delighted the display will be resurrected again for even more Congletonians to appreciate."

"We are extremely grateful to Congleton Library for their support, the imagined village of a medieval Congleton in 1272 is rather large and will take up a lot of space at the library over the next two weeks.

"It's a fantastic opportunity for residents who missed if first time round, or those who were fortunate to see it before to revisit to fully appreciate the attention to detail. It's one of those things, where something new jumps out at you each time you look at. Jenny's vision, talent and passion for Congleton is outstanding – don't miss it."

Public viewing will coincide with the library opening hours, apart from launch day on Monday 12 September when viewing will be at the slightly later time of 12 noon.

Admission is free of charge. Jenny and the library team kindly request all visitors to be respectful of the exhibition, touching the display is not allowed due to its fragile and delicate condition.
