Howden Monopoly is here!

The Ashes Playing Field Trust is pleased to be able to confirm details of a very special limited edition Howden Monopoly set we have commissioned to raise funds towards development of our park.

The fully licenced product as been produced in partnership with Hasbro, with players stopping in for a drink at the Bowman’s or Wellington Hotel rather than landing on Old Kent Road, and paying memberships to Howden Women’s Institute or Howden AFC rather than the traditional taxes.

Local firms have generously sponsored the costs of production, meaning every penny handed over can go towards the Ashes’ development fund as we seek to complete an ambitious renovation project ahead of the park’s centenary in 2027.

We hope this unique once-in-a-lifetime product will prove popular with the people of Howden and help us raise thousands of pounds towards the developments.

The sets cost £30, but any bought in 2016 are available at the discounted price of £25.

The set will be officially launched at the Late Night Shopping event in Howden town centre on Thursday December 8, and we are able to accept orders with payment  now.

This can be done from any town centre outlet displaying one of our posters, or from any trustee. We will be adding an option for online payment shortly.

Please note that copies ordered in advance are for pick-up or delivery within Howden only.
