Siddington Harvest Festival Corn Dolly Display

Where: Siddington, Cheshire at All Saints Church
When: From 2nd weekend in October
Time: All day

 

Every October the pretty timbered church at Siddington is decorated with fruit, vegetables, flowers and literally hundreds (maybe even thousands) of corn dollies made by local man Raymond Rush. Their Harvest Festival Service is held on the second Sunday in the month and the dollies usually remain in place for about four weeks; the church is kept open so that visitors can admire the justly famous display but check with the church for opening hours if you’re planning to attend outside service times.

Helpful Hints

Mr Rush the corn dolly maker lives at the farm near the church and he sometimes sells dollies from his workshop. The dollies are displayed in church for the Harvest Festival and the days following.

In 2023 the Harvest Festival was on Sunday 8th October, with services at 10am and 6.30 pm- 2024 date is yet to be confirmed but likely to be Sunday 13th October.
