Welcome!
In 1975, in Westhoughton, near Bolton in Lancashire - a group of lads who loved to play local songs and folk favorites became "The Westhoughton Weavers".
Not long after, the "West" was dropped and "The Houghton Weavers" became a household name, from their own long running BBC Television series "Sit Thi Deawn" as well as six series on BBC Radio 2.
Dozens of recordings, thousands of concerts and even the odd pantomime have formed a career that will span 50 years in 2025.
David Littler, one of the original founding members of the group, and the longest serving, is delighted to be re-uniting onstage with his brother Denis, also a founder member and co-star of the TV and radio shows for some very special upcoming concerts and projects that, along with other special guests and friends, will celebrate 50 years of keeping folk smiling.
This website will grow as more information becomes available, but in the meantime you can click to find out about...
