600 years ago the North Bar in Beverley's town walls was constructed at a cost of £96. It is now the only one of the bars remaining and there is a period of celebrations in the town that culminates in a full day of events on July 12th.

Mudcatters will be interested to hear that the musical element of the celebrations include our own Saggy Bottom Boys as well as an Early English Dance workshop, Beverley Brass Band, Green Ginger Morris. Longcroft Gospel Choir, Beverley Garland Dancers and Andrew Garland's Mandolin Recital. For a full programme go to the Beverley Renaissance Partnership website at www.beverlyrenaissance.co.uk
