I have to point out that the Camping Ground is so dry that Barbeques are not allowed!

As Cleckheaton is situated on the Banks of the River Spen. I have been told that the Festival Committee are putting on a ferry so that you may cross it with Dry Feet. There will be a charge of the usual Two Pence per person per trip.

All the public toilets in Cleckheaton will be free for the duration of the festival.

Also a special Folk Train will be running so that festival visitors may experience the delights of Heckmondwike, Liversedge and Drub!

We are all very friendly in Cleckheaton so you should not be afraid of stopping anyone in the street to ask for directions to these attractions.

Unfortunately the annual Cricket Match between the Yorkshire and Lancaster Teams has been cancelled! The committee, I have been told, took this decision as they felt the sight of the Lancaster supporters crying in their beer was frankly putting a down on the whole day. They did consider letting the visiting Team Win but after loosing for so many years they felt that the Lancastrians might smell a rat.
