They have obviously decided to camp under the entrance signs to remind us that during the lockdown, there's no place like gnome.

Perhaps it is time Charlbury had a town motto. I suggest “A gnome in every home and an elf on every shelf” would go nicely with the little figures surrounding us.

There is also one on the Charlbury Road just as you come up out of Crawley by the Bird in Hand pub! Very are very sweet :)

Gnomes bring a smile. We all need gnomes. And yes the back story of Charlburys newest residents would be interesting and a light relief.

What is the story behind the appearance of all these gnomes on toadstools?

I believe they came from British Gnome Stores; when it went bump they all became gnomeless! HNY all, Kris

Perhaps it was a directive from the top, Gnome Secretary Pretty Petal?

...and one on the Woodstock road, so guess all entrances to Charlbury are being covered by the Gnome Guard....obviously deployed to their locations by the Gnome Office and keep in contact with each other by listening to the Gnome Service.

Delighted to hear he has other relatives in his bubble.

Now there's a challenge, how many gnomes can be spotted?  and how many more can appear!?

The toadstool with smiling gnome, sitting beneath the Banbury Hill  Charlbury sign, is a very cheery addition to the town. It may have taken residence days ago, but the gnome said nothing. If by any chance he strayed away from home last night, and the lovely toadstool on which he’s sitting too...that’s where he is. He really looked as if it was his gnome from home though...
