What's on in Duck Lane

Duck Lane in Essex is a proper Essex sort of place where the river flows past and the locals know exactly what to do on a rainy afternoon. There are plenty of markets to browse if you fancy a wander, while community groups often gather for a game of cricket or some local theatre productions. It isn't about having the biggest stage in the country, but rather about finding something that fits your mood right here at home. You might catch a storyteller spinning yarns by the canal or join neighbours for a charity walk through the fields. The town has a quiet confidence and doesn't need to shout to get attention from anyone passing by. Near Here keeps track of who is doing what so you can pop in without having to ask round the village hall first.
