FROM THE ARCHIVE: An animated sale being held on Reeth village green on September 30, 1960, in aid of the Methodist Manse Restoration Fund. It just about ties in with this wonderful poster that we spotted recently in Red House, a fascinating vintage shop in Bedale, for sale for £29. It is for a thistlemower for Reeth Low Moor in 1967, to be paid an extremely generous six shillings an hour. Can anyone tell us anything about thistlemowing? Please email chris.lloyd@nne.co.uk
