Tamworth Castle, in conjunction with Cairn Crafts will be celebrating connections through coracle making for this year's national Heritage Open Days.

Coracle making demonstrations by expert coracle makers from ‘Cairn Crafts’ will be located at 'The Hub, The Old Swimming Baths', opposite the Tennis Courts, in Tamworth Castle Grounds on Saturday 7 and Sunday 8 September.

Cairn Crafts was founded by Kevin and Ellen over 30 years ago, they have been demonstrating coracle making around the country and have made coracles for various films and television productions, including most recently, the television series, ‘Game of Thrones’.

Visitors can find out more about the craft of coracle making; watch how they are made, learn about the history of the coracle and find out what they were used for.

Plus there will be free coracle rides for adults and children (age 4+), in a small pool located opposite 'The Hub'.
