NEW CHOIR

In August 2008, a new adult choir started up in the Parish Church.  With both male and female members and from teenagers to grannies, the choir is ably directed by village music teacher Lorraine Mulholland.  We could do with a few more men though so if you're interested, do come along on Thursday evenings.  We meet in the Church from 7.30 - 8.30. Or call Lorraine on 730332 for more information

500 Years of the Eddleston Bell

2007 celebrated the 500th anniversary of the Eddleston Bell.
