We are working with the UK Men's Shed Association to introduce Sheds to coraclemaking, in order to increase the volume of coracles being built and used, and hopefully secure the future of coraclemaking in the UK, which is under threat as listed in the Heritage Crafts Association's Red List of Endangered Crafts.
Robson Green goes coracle fishing
16 February 2017
Coracle fishing made a welcome appearance on ITV's new documentary series, Tales from the Coast with Robson Green.
Broadcast on 7th February, the 9 minute segment shows Robson Green meeting with Teifi coracle netsmen Len and Aaron Walters, learning how to paddle the Teifi coracle before going out for a night of fishing for sea trout. The weather that night hampered their efforts but they did manage to catch a fish.
