  • Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
    FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one.

  • Title: Matterdale Community and Educational Centre Date: 14 May
    Title: Matterdale Community and Educational Centre Date: 14 May 2020 Author: Kellie Bradburn-Sims Unit / Directorate: Corporate, Customer and Community Services Audience: Eden Local Committee 1. Purpose 1.1 To update Eden Local Committee on the development of a project to build a community and education centre, of sustainable and sensitive environmental design, providing a local and regional community benefit. 1.2 To seek support from Eden Local Committee and approval of funding, to contribute to the initial feasibility phase of the project. 2. Background 2.1 The Old Village Hall: Matterdale has had a village hall since the 1940`s located in The Old School. It was a thriving community hub and focal point for the valley, renowned for its variety of music, drama and cultural events. The fabric of the building unfortunately deteriorated and the building was sold by Cumbria County Council in 2016. The site has now been identified as an area for much needed local housing development, currently awaiting planning approval. 2.2 Matterdale Educational Field Centre: The field centre was run from The New School after it`s closure in the 1960`s. The site provided a space for schools, scout and guiding groups from across Cumbria to meet and engage in activities. After the spread of Foot and Mouth in 2001, costly health and safety improvements were required and lack of funds led to it`s closure. 2.3 Matterdale Community Association: Set up in 2013 to continue the organisation of community activities in the area. No longer with a permanent venue, they have sought to use pop-up and alternative meeting spaces, but most presenting limitations in terms of access and facilities.
