PLANS for a Herefordshire town's biggest Christmas fayre yet have been announced.
Ross-on-Wye Town Council will be holding the event on November 27, when the town centre, Broad Street and Croft Court, will come alive with over 70 stalls selling locally handmade arts and crafts plus delicious artisan food and drink.
From decorations, candles, bath bombs, ceramics, and jewellery, to cheese, chutneys, hampers, brownies, and blankets, there will be lots to choose from.
Two bars will be set up and the Beefy Boys will also be serving their famous burgers, alongside other food stalls.

During the afternoon there will be live music at the Market House including local choirs, the Border Belles and the Penyard Singers and solo singers, Erica Jean, John Winder, and the Ross-on-Wye Town Band.
Children can also pay a visit to Santa's Grotto at The Venue in Hill Street, where there will also be an array of charity stalls with plenty more gift ideas.
Look out for the Grinch who will be causing mayhem throughout the day and trying to 'steal Christmas'.
Santa's reindeers will be taking time out of their pre-Christmas training schedule to make a special appearance between 12-2pm.

"The reindeer, supplied by Smart Trees, are incredibly friendly and love fuss so be sure to pop by the Crofts and give them a stroke and take lots of photos," said a spokesperson from the town council.
A special guest will be turning on the Christmas Lights at 4.30pm, which include the town's new hedgehog lights.
If you are testing positive or displaying any symptoms of coronavirus or norovirus, please do not attend, said the spokesperson.
