Ingram Fireworks Fun 2019!
Fireworks fun at Ingram Village
Following the failure of the Gunpowder Plot in 1605, King James I introduced the ‘Observance of 5th November Act’, an enforced annual public day of thanksgiving. Despite being repealed in 1859, the celebration has continued with enthusiasm throughout the UK. So last night – exactly 414 years after the failed plot – Ingram Village celebrated in its own community-centred style at Ingram Village Hall.

A drop of the Irish, a spoonful of Country, a splash of Cajun and a twist of folk…

Northumbrian Evening 2016 – what a great night!
It’s been over three years since we’ve enjoyed a Northumbrian Evening at Breamish Hall. So, it was a pleasure to have Ernie Coe and friends back in Powburn for an evening of Music and Mirth. Oh…and a pie and pea supper! What’s not to like, eh?

School Fete success 2016
Summer School Fete success
To celebrate the opening of Branton Community Primary School in September 2016, the Summer Fete held on Saturday 25 June 2016 was a great success!
Running and counting…what fun!
With fun and free children’s activities, including a treasure hunt, pony rides, football practice, naming a sheep…and more…there were happy, smiling children and adults everywhere. Despite an early threat of rain, the weather held out and the sun also smiled on proceedings.
The Happy Cats (Powburn 2016)
The Happy Cats
A drop of the Irish, a spoonful of Country, a splash of Cajun and a twist of folk returned to Powburn last Saturday night (25 June 2016) in the form of The Happy Cats, almost two years after their last sell-out performance at Breamish Hall.
And last weekend’s gig was no exception. The multi-talented line-up of Marty Craggs (lead vocals, saxophone, harmonica, flute, tin whistle, tambourine, bodhran), Les Dodd (guitar, vocals) and Lenny Brown (accordion, vocals) got the crowd buzzing with electrifying performances from start to finish. By the end of a terrific evening of Celtic sounds, mixed with Geordie and Irish folk, underpinned by stirring rock and roll rhythms, the crowd were on their feet with grins as wide as…well…a happy cat! Just outstanding!
Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebration
Hedgeley Women’s Institute
Hedgeley WI celebrated the Queen’s 90th Birthday by organising a Tea in the Garden, planned for Saturday 23 April 2016. As it happened, the weather was poor on Saturday so the venue was changed to the Breamish Hall.
Several members of the local community came together to celebrate.
There was plenty of good home-made food available, including sandwiches, cakes, biscuits and Pimm’s.
