Clovelly Herring Festival

Clovelly was once a major centre for herring fishing. This popular festival is held in support of sustainable fishing by traditional methods and to celebrate the herring, the 'Silver Darlings' of the sea. There'll be herring specialties, cookery demonstrations; traditional shanty singers, street entertainment, local stalls and the N. Devon A.O.N.B. will provide event-themed, free craft activities. Mike Smylie will return with his 'Kipperland' exhibition and smoke his delicious kippers and bloaters. There will also be net making, flax processing and a curragh on show provided by 'Flaxland'
