Hi. I am going to be staying in hayfield in the High Peaks from this weekend. Can anyone let me know of any accessible folk outlets from 3 - 10 July ... Ceilidhs, Clubs or Morris tours? Thanks everyone

Friday nights: session @ the Harrington, Gawsworth. Not the Peak but easy to get to from Hayfield.

Three Stags Heads, Wardlow Mires: session, used to be a Saturday evening but I've not been for a while.

Barrel @ Bretton, session on Wednesdays.

Powderkegs morris are in Whaley Bridge, do a Google to see what they're up to.

The Globe, Glossop, not sure what goes on there these days - the beer's excellent and cheap, as is the food.

You've just missed the Freaks in the Peaks quarterly weekend (last week), it was a good do from what I gather.

There's loads more that others will be able to help with.

Barley Mow, Bonsall, near Matlock, every Friday. I haven't been for a good while; I think it tends to be more "acoustic" than folk these days, and anyway everything round here is haunted by The Melodeon Player From Hell.
