BEHOLDYERAMBLERS- a new play by Neil Gore

From the voices oframblersand campaigners to the songsandpoetry inspired by pastandcurrent struggles, “BeholdYeRamblers” is a new play about The Clarion newspaperandthe organisations formed by its readership, including the famous rambling club, The Sheffield ClarionRamblers. Along with the Clarion Cyclists, these early Edwardian pioneers promoted healthy outdoor pursuits, organising expeditions across open moorsandmountains whilst campaigning for the right to roam, bringing them into conflict with landowners’ huntingandshooting activitiesandlaws that prioritised private property over the wellbeing of others.
