Humberside Police Band - Sunday 30th August.
Hello everyone. On Sunday 30th August, we welcome the Humberside Police Band, who are performing in the Gardens between 2pm and 4pm.
This event is sponsored by East Riding Sacks Ltd, and we thank them for their generous support.
We anticipate that our carpark will get busy from around 11 am, and we hope that the following alternative parking information will be useful:
If our own car park is full, alternative event parking is available at Pocklington Football Club (YO42-2NZ), situated on The Balk next to the Gardens (YO42-2QT), or in the council car park on Robertson Close, across The Balk from the Gardens, behind the old railway station.
We ask our visitors to please be considerate of residents. Please avoid parking on Broadmanor, where poor and inconsiderate parking has resulted in the authorities being made aware and checks being made.
