Congratulations to our new Companions!. We are delighted to announce that the following have been recognised for their outstanding service to the craft of blacksmithing by the award of Companion of the Worshipful Company of Blacksmiths: Ms Del Done MBE and Ms Lucy Quinnell.

The after-dinner entertainment on the Friday evening was a series of casino tables. Fortunately it was all Monopoly money, so no bank accounts were harmed, and the winner was Josh Masey, closely followed by Sheree Gibson and the Consort Debbie Abraham.

The group very much appreciated the work by the Prime Warden Mark Abraham and his Consort Debbie to organise such an enjoyable weekend. There were even some prizes, and the overall winner of the combined archery and clay pigeon shooting was Cameron Pearson.

And after a wash and brush-up, we met for pre-prandials in the delightful Tudor Hall of the hotel before dinner.

25 members and guests of the Blacksmiths’ Company gathered at the weekend for the Prime Warden’s Weekend. The events based in Northamptonshire included clay pigeon shooting, archery and a visit to a museum/art gallery. The group captured here after the outdoor activities:

The Company was also delighted that the signing ceremony was witnessed by our Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress and a representative from each of our affiliated military units.
