Les in Chorlton Ellesmere Port Shanty 2016 Mar 25 - 28 (11) RE: Ellesmere Port Shanty 2016 Mar 25 - 28 23 Mar 16


I was born and grew up in Ellesmere Port, went to The Jug O'Punch Folk Club at The Princess Hotel on Princess Road, Helped to run the Penny Farthing Folk Club at The Travelers Rest on Ledsham Road with Russ Dumbill and Andy Chrimes and started the Bag End Folk Club with Ken & Barry and then Dave, Jen & Lesley at The Princess. Left the Port in 1974.

Liz & I know live in Manchester and play with the Beech Band:

Songs & Tunes with The Beech Band

I never thought for a minute that Ellesmere Port would have its own Festival.

Well done you plotters, planners and organisers and all the musicians and folky supporters. You are doing a fantastic job!
