The Flood at Double Dykes

In the recording above, made in Perthshire in 1993, "Hamish Henderson explains that Willie MacPhee lost his caravan in a flood. Sheila Douglas sings a new song of her own composition, to the tune of 'In the Month of January', about the flood. The Travellers at the Double Dykes site lost their homes and possessions, but were refused compensation by the local council until they took legal action."
