The distinctive figure of Pat Nicholson with his long flowing hair, and faithful dog Oz by his side is a regular sight around Stony. Pat was born just four and a half miles from Stony in the village of Whaddon in 1948. Growing up in the 1960’s, he developed a love for both the arts and music and left for London in 1968 to study architecture. Pat eventually set up his own small practice in Bedford in the 1980’s and has since worked for several practices in both London and the north of England. Further to retiring in 2013, he has concentrated on writing and performing music. He currently runs the successful Vaultage Open Mic, the annual YorkieFest fundraiser and became the Fifth Bard of Stony in 2015.
