The Two Lewes Folk Clubs

ANNOUNCEMENT - The Two Lewes Folk Clubs.
It is certainly unusual these days, but the town of Lewes has TWO folk clubs that operate independently at pubs within a couple of hundred yards of one another.
* One on THURSDAYS at the Royal Oak in Station Street, Lewes
* One on SATURDAYS at the Lewes Arms in Mount Place, Lewes
The clubs work closely in harmony (musically and socially!) with one another but both have seen confusion arriving when artists/agents/listing magazines/email circulars etc. have announced a gig as being at "LEWES FOLK CLUB".
Could we ask that when you are announcing a date at either of these ventures that you announce them as being at either
FOLK AT THE ROYAL OAK, LEWES
or
LEWES ARMS FOLK CLUB, LEWES

And we count ourselves lucky to have the scope for this kind of confusion to arise!
