There must be something going on in Barnard Castle - mustn't there? Please let me know, and we can prevent some of those greenhouse gases. |

From: gnomad Don't know if it still goes on but the local dance sides used to have a big weekend bash in and around BC each Mayday weekend. If your friend is in town I imagine the host sides should be able to give a few pointers regarding the local folk scene. Used to be a right good do, but I don't dance these days, so am out of touch. |

From: C-flat I remember there being a small folk club operating out of a tiny room in a pub just near the Buttermarket but I can't remember the name of it. I think it's on Newgate but I'm afraid it's many years since I lived there and my brain isn't what it was!! C-flat. |
