GRACE DARLING COMMEMORATIVE ALE


Wikio - Top Blogs - Wine and beer





It was on the 7th September 1838, that Grace Darling and her father rescued survivors from the Forfarshire in gale force winds. A rescue which if carried out today would have been perilous. But, over 150 years ago in a wooden coble is a story of incredible heroism

For further information on Grace take a wander over to the website:

Enjoy and drink a toast to Grace!
