DOWNTON Abbey creator Lord Fellowes of West Stafford will be sharing some of the secrets of his success at an event supporting Puddletown’s new community library.

The Oscar-winning writer will be at St Mary’s Middle School in Puddletown on Friday, March 15 to talk about his life in film and television.

The event will help support the efforts of the Friends of Puddletown Library, who took over their village library last month.

Doors open on the night at 6.30pm for a 7pm start.

Tickets cost £12 and include a supper prepared by school staff.

There will also be drinks available and a raffle.

Tickets can be bought from the library during opening hours or from the Middle School office as well as from 3, 11 or 21 High Street or Woods Cottage, The Green, Puddletown or 12 Trent Close, Tolpuddle.
