Pat Spensley, Celia Coultherd and Margaret Hird have between them committed over 80 years to the Street Market cause. Pat is the pie queen, Celia runs the famous scone stall and Margaret has turned her hand to many things over the years. The Austwick Street Market and Cuckoo Festival started over 45 years ago and is run every year by volunteers in the village to raise money for two main village facilities - the Playing Fields and Parish Hall.
Highlights of the day not to be missed will be the Thwaites Dray Horses, Settle & Giggleswick Brass band, classic vehicles, jazz music, Morris Dancers, skittles and local crafts, produce, plants and baking. The ‘spares’ stall and the bric-a-brac stall will offer great opportunities to bargain hunters and lovers of vintage treasures. Younger visitors will enjoy the Baby Cuckoo Trail, games, activities, face painting and a pair of very photogenic alpacas.
