Three Acres And A Cow, A History Of Land Rights And Protest In Folk Song And Story - Leigh-On-Sea - May

'Three Acres And A Cow' connects the Norman Conquest and Peasants’ Revolt with current issues like fracking and the housing crisis via the Enclosures, 'English' Civil War, Highland Clearances, Irish Land League and Industrial Revolution, drawing a compelling narrative through the radical people’s history of Britain in folk song, stories and poems.

Part TED talk, part history lecture, part folk club sing-a-long, part poetry slam, part storytelling session… Come and share in these tales as they have been shared for generations.

Featuring Rachel Rose Reid, Naomi Wilkins, Robin Grey and local guests Brian Denny, Crafting For Foes and Kate Waterfield... see http://threeacresandacow.co.uk/ for more information.
