Band returns to home village of Cockerham this weekend

Rock and roll band The Flatlanders return to their home village of Cockerham this Saturday, September 23 to play at a special charity event at the village hall.

This promises to be a fantastic night out and is in aid of Cockerham St Michael’s Church, known locally as the ‘church in the field’, with funds going to maintenance and preservation of this beautiful, listed building.
