Welcome to the village of Tallington

We hope you will enjoy living here.
There are regular events throughout the weeks and months - usually held in the village hall. See the link on the left hand side for details.

200 Club
We run a 200 club, where residents of the village choose a share number for £1 a month. A monthly draw takes place with 3 winners each month winning £5, £10 or £15, plus 2 Big Draws every year with prizes of £10, £20 or £50! As they say, you have got to be in it to win it! If you would like to join the 200 club please contact Liz Allen for more details.

Village Book
The Tallington Village Book is on sale - contact Wally Knox for your copy, an excellent way to learn some of the history of the village.
