We’ve arranged a trip to see the Lavender Fields near Epsom. These fields have a fascinating history being established in the early 2000s by Brendan Maye in partnership with a local charity BioRegional. Brendan was the Managing Director of the fine fragrance division of Wella UK, and at that time Wella owned Yardley, an old English Lavender brand that was struggling to compete in the ever increasingly competitive fragrance market. By coincidence, the site eventually purchased was some original Victorian lavender fields. Hopefully the weather will be good, and the lavender at peak bloom, but if the worst comes to the worst, we can always retire to the coffee shop.
If you would like to join us, the cost is going to be between £15 and £19 depending on numbers. This will include this minibus and entrance to the farm. There are 13 spaces on the minibus, so it is first come, first served. We will confirm if you are successful in securing a space on the bus, and then how much the final cost will be.

With a starting point on Twickenham’s working Embankment, we will amble – slide by slide – towards the Georgian splendour of Marble Hill House, taking in Eel Pie Island along our way.
Celia Holman is a former children’s book publisher and television producer. She has lived on Eel Pie Island since 2013, Celia has (almost inevitably…) become a keen amateur historian. Her interest in wider London has resulted in her involvement since 2017 in an extensive oral history project to document the experiences of working Londoners. Its material is archived at both the Museum of London and the London Archives, amongst other institutions.
