Wednesday 10 December 2025 7.30pm THERE IS NO NEED TO BOOK FOR THIS EVENT
We look forward to welcoming Old English back to Heaton History Group in December. They will tell us more about the history of some iconic north-eastern folk songs, perform them and sometimes give us a chance to join in the chorus. You will be familiar with many of them but may not know so much about their composers or the circumstances in which they were written and performed.
Old English
Old English comprises Pete Cryer and Alan Giles, who will be familiar to most Heaton History Group members – as he is our Chair. Pete and Alan have been singing and playing together for nearly 60 years. They specialise in finding new interesting arrangements for their voices.
Our Venue
This event will take place at St George’s United Reformed Church on Newton Road, High Heaton NE7 7HP. It is on the corner with Boundary Gardens, the same block as Heaton Stannington’s football ground, Grounsell Park.
There are excellent public transport links including the numbers 18, 38, 52 and 553, which stop right by the church.
There is car parking on the surrounding streets.
Booking There is no need to book. Just turn up on the night.
