What an amazing day for our sleuths as they took on the challenge of our Walking Treasure Hunt! Around 70 people joined in and came back to Greyfriars afterwards for a delicious cream tea! A huge thank you goes to Mary Baldwin for all her hard work in writing the clues, to Amanda Loader for her amazing cakes and scones and the rest of the volunteers who came along, laid tables, washed up, organised a raffle and generally helped make the day so memorable! Thank you all! Pictured the winning team who won a tie breaker!
