Behold Ye Ramblers – a new play by Neil Gore
The Clarion : Fellowship Is Life
From the voices of ramblers and campaigners to the songs and poetry inspired by past and current struggles, “Behold Ye Ramblers” is a new play about The Clarion newspaper and the organisations formed by its readership, including rambling clubs, like Sheffield’s Clarion Ramblers, the Clarion Cyclists and Clarion Vans.
These early Edwardian pioneers promoted socialism and healthy outdoor pursuits, organising expeditions across open moors and mountains whilst campaigning the right to roam, bringing them into conflict with landowners, gamekeepers and laws prioritising private property over the well-being of others.
