The Belford Players will be staging a brand new performance using oral material from the Sheep Tales and Spinning Yarns archive at Ferguson Hall in Belford on Friday 19th August, The Glendale Hall in Wooler on Saturday 20th August and finally at Etal Village Hall on Sunday 21st August. All 3 shows start at 7.00pm and although there isn't a charge for tickets, donations are most welcome. Refreshments will be available at all performances.

The material for this show is taken from the fascinating Sheep Tales and Spinning Yarns archive of over 700 images and 50 hours of oral history recording the memories and lives of shepherds and farming communities rural North Northumberland. The images and oral clips available on this website are only a small selection of the full digital archive, which is preserved in the Berwick-upon-Tweed Record Office.
