A MAGIC Lantern evening is being held by the Burham Moose Lodge 123, on Saturday (February 10).

Entertainment will be provided by The Travelling Light Magic Lantern Company.

The highlight of the evening will be the rendition of a song called On Berrow Sand.

Written by Fred Weatherley, the song tells the story of a local fisherman whose wife every evening during the 1870s placed a lighted lantern in their cottage window to guide her husband home as he crossed the treacherous Berrow Sands after a busy day fishing.

After buffet refreshments, the evening will conclude with a talk on School days given by Peter Tinney.

Anyone interested in attending the evening is asked to contact Chris Harris, Lodge Governor, on 01278-760486.
