We know this will be very disappointing to the standholders and all those who have enjoyed coming to the Fair over the last 43 years. It has not been an easy decision to make, but we have had to take into account the difficult logistics posed by holding the event in a confined indoor space such as the Cloisters, together with the ongoing restoration and conservation work which has been undertaken and the stead decline in numbers visiting the Fair in the recent years.

Lord and Lady Pembroke and the Trustees would like to thank every one who has supported the Fair over the years and wish everyone the very best for the future.
