EAST COKER POETRY GROUP
East Coker is a picturesque village in South Somerset and was the subject of T.S.Eliot’s poem ‘East Coker’, one of his Four Quartets. T.S Eliot’s ashes are buried at the church in the village.
With this poetic background it is natural that a poetry group was formed in the village in 2004 and has been going ever since. Our meetings are open to anyone with an interest in poetry.
Meetings are entertaining, informal and sociable. Everyone is welcome, including visitors to the village and guests staying in the village. Our meetings regularly attract 20 – 30 poetry lovers.
There is no charge for entry.
Meetings are normally held in the Village Cafe, East Coker, Yeovil. BA22 9HY on the last Tuesday of the month – but always check this website for up to date details.
The Cafe opens for us soon after 7pm with the meeting starting at 7.30pm.
The Village Cafe is almost opposite the school in the village.
Parking in the evening is available behind, or on road at the front of the Cafe.
