Dear Visitors,

Due to an early Easter and some very changeable weather, the

observation hive colony is not yet strong enough to be brought

back to Cliffe Castle in time for the start of the school Easter Holidays. But we will

keep an eye on how the bees are doing and hope to return them,

safely, very soon.


The Observation Hive Team for 2026, is:

Steve Johnson, Lee Brotherton, Anthony Calvert and Linda

Schofield, with help from Mike Barlow and Mick Berry as needed.
