We’ve loved reliving the memories from this year’s Eton May Day Fete — and one of the highlights was Mayor Linda Tarbox speaking with BBC Radio Berkshire during the celebrations.
The interview captured the spirit of the day perfectly, reflecting on Eton’s rich history, the importance of Lammas Land, and the fantastic community atmosphere that made the fete such a success.
Thank you again to everyone who attended and helped create such a memorable day for Eton. ☀️
