Tut, the Eygptian gosling we recently featured in his battle to survive since birth at Rush Pond in early February, has won the hearts of many locals.
Bowls of food and water are now being provided at his favourite shady spot at the end of Prince Imperial Road, helping him to develop a full plumage and master flying.
Tut, short for Tutankhamun, is now making a pharaoh fight to enjoy his first summer in Chislehurst!

We’re looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow at the Summer Fair.
Last year the sun was out and we enjoyed chatting to everyone who visited our stand, this year we have lots of 3D bear models for you! A hug of bears perhaps 🐻
The last photo is of Jan, from with her balloons!
See you all tomorrow!

Chislehurst witnessed its biggest and best-attended annual motor show since launching four years ago.
Just over 200 vehicles entered Sunday’s event, which saw the High Street closed for most of the day to allow the thousands to roam and enjoy a rain-free afternoon with super cars of all ages on show.
Hornbrook House car park housed a funfair and food stalls, while a new kids’ zone opened at the end of Prince Imperial Road.

There will be no litter pick this month as it clashes with the motor show 🚗 Please head out to support this wonderful event.
However, if you’d still like to do some litter picking, bags and picking sticks are always available if you can offer time elsewhere, just head to our offices at The Old Chapel 🚮
