How the day works
Carving is part of the show: our chef carves the pork in front of the queue, with crackling for everyone who wants it. In Upper Halliford, midsummer sunset is about 9:20pm, and by late September it is nearer 7:05pm, which means an evening hog roast is normally served in daylight in high summer. For autumn and winter weddings, when it’s dark by about 3:55pm in December, plan lighting at the carving station.
