Stamford
Burghley

 

 

 

 

 

The Inner Wheel Club of Stamford Burghley meet at the Lady Anne’s Hotel, Stamford on the third Thursday of each month except August, at 7.00pm. The Club received its Charter in 1990 and currently has 35 members.

 

On the outskirts of Stamford stands Burghley House which was built for William Cecil, the first Lord Burghley and Lord Treasurer for Elizabeth I.  The extensive deer park in which the House stands was designed by Capability Brown and accommodates the Burghley Horse Trials every September.

 

 

 

 

Members of the club took part in the June

 

2009 Race for Life at Burghley Park – on a pouring wet day.   However the weather did not deter them from enjoying themselves – as they went round the course “Singing in the Rain” – encouraging others to join in.
