Seeing opening night of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' at Shakespeare's Globe (after being closed for more than a year due to the virus). We were mentioned by the New York Times in a relevant article.
Fishing Radnor Gardens

Fly-fishing a private estate
Radnor Gardens is one of our favourite fishing spots -- largely because it is only about a 5minute walk from St. Mary's.

The Society Tartan
All the best university societies -- from Harvard to Oxford -- have their own society tartan, and Fishing Society is the only society at St. Mary's with our own tartan approved and registered with the U.K. government.
The meaning
The Society Tartan
The Society Tartan
Colours: blue and white are the colours of St. Mary's and the scarlet line represents the Society and the spirit of adventure, which is the Society's ethos. The design was specifically chosen to represent the idea of network, community, and friendship -- the core values and legacy of the Society.
