A HISTORY weekend is coming to Westonzoyland to celebrate 500 years of the village.

The Zoyfest500 event will take place on August 8 and 9 at the village hall in Cheer Lane.

People are urged to come along and share both their past and present memories.

Members of the Westonzoyland Aerroclub will be flying Microlight Planes over the village on one of the two days depending upon the weather conditions.

Organisers are looking for any artefacts with a reference to 500 years of Westonzoyland for the weekend, including photos and documents. They are also aiming to have a reunion of old village residents.

If anyone can help out, please contact Chris on 01278 691375.
