Community Poppy Project
October 4 - November 17
Sunday 4 October – Tuesday 17 November 2026
The poppy project was started by the Castle’s volunteer wellbeing ‘Hooks and Heritage’ crochet group who initially
came up with the idea to crochet poppies to mark Remembrance Day. The idea grew and we will now have over 2000
handmade poppies on display in the Great Hall.
A space to reflect, remember and enjoy a beautiful display created by our Castle volunteers, community groups and individuals.
Free admission for Armed Forces, Veterans and Poppy Makers
