Hogmanay and New Year Traditions



Margherita Taylor is in Auchindrain, a fascinating and remarkably preserved example of a Scottish Highland farm township, to discover the roots and traditions surrounding New Year and Burns Night. She discovers how tough life was, and that Christmas was once just a normal working day for the townsfolk. She also delves into the Countryfile archive to celebrate other seasonal customs, revisiting the time Ellie Harrison and Matt Baker took part in the Shaftsbury Snowdrop Festival, and when John Craven learned about the ancient tradition of Gaelic psalm singing.
