"This publication not only tells the story of the band’s journey but also gives an insight into some of Newcastle’s history. Like all pipe bands, this group is made up of many interesting characters and their stories are bought back to life through the pen of Ailsa Barnett, their current Pipe Major.

Looking forward to the next 100 years!"
