 her visit to Dove Cottage

Dove Cottage guest Kim Reed presented the Duchcess with a posy. After unveiling a plaque to commemorate her visit the Duchcess also signed the Dove Cottage visitors book.More than 50 people were present for the Duchess's visit.The Duchcess congratulated everyone involved with Dove Cottage and everyone who'd contributed to the extension work.
I too would like to thank everyone involved.This has been a real team effort and included guests, volunteers, staff, local charity groups, businesses and the media.
We've still a little reorganisation to do but we've settled into our new environment quickly and easily.Like everyone else involved at Dove Cottage I can't believe that we managed with the space we had before...but we did!
