The annual bun walk to Pamphill and, this year, to St. Stephens Church at Kingston Lacy, once again took place on Good Friday afternoon.

Starting outside Wimborne Minster the youngsters and adults were joined by the Bishop of Sherborne the Right Revd Karen Gorham, rector and curate to walk alongside the River Stour and up the hill to Pamphill and onwards to St. Stephens Church where they found Hot Cross Buns ‘growing’ on the trees.

The tradition goes back more than 40 years and, miraculously, whenever Good Friday comes round the ‘buns’ appear.

After enjoying the buns and cakes provided by Church Members there was a short Service led by Revd Suzie Allen who looks after the Church and the Revd Nick Wells the Minster Curate.
