A Night by Da Fire - Music and Stories at the Crofthouse Museum
Tuesday, May 13th 2025 7:30pm - 9:00pm
Crofthouse Museum, Dunrossness
Step back in time as you enter a traditional 19th century thatched crofthouse to recreate Shetland's past in a special 'in aboot da night'. One of our custodians will light the fire and 'hand doon a fiddle' to local musicians, Maurice Henderson, Ewan Thomson, and Ella Henderson, who will play a range of traditional tunes along with a few stories and yarns along the way.
This is an atmospheric, intimate event with only 12 tickets available.
This event will take place once a month throughout the summer on the following dates:
- Tuesday 13 May
- Tuesday 3 June
- Tuesday 1 July
- Tuesday 5 August
- Tuesday 2 September
Accessibility: Entry to the crofthouse site is down a narrow, steep sloped track with three steps at the start of the path. The doorways into the interior of the buildings are also narrow, the door-lintels are low and the floor uneven.
