Bonfire Night bigger and better than ever!

This year’s Middleton Hall Bonfire Night was bigger and better than ever, complete with a fantastic firework display. Residents, Co-owners and prospective residents attended to enjoy the evening.

As part of the event residents across the village also took part in the Middleton Hall Guy competition, with entries displayed in front of reception throughout the afternoon. The entries were judged by a specially nominated resident and, after careful and close consideration, Middleton Grove’s Best of British Guy, pictured below, was declared the winner.

Spectators also enjoyed a Bonfire Night menu which was available in The Orangery and included winter warmers and traditional fayre such as pumpkin soup, burgers, hotdogs and parkin.

Below is a selection of images taken on the night:
