Captain Willys visits Uredale Glass Works in Masham, North Yorkshire
The creativity that characterises this small but stylish studio is obvious.
It's a place that could stimulate one to perhaps commission a stain glass window or simply pick up a beautiful coloured glass vase from the varied collection of objects that are made by hand. If you like glass, pop in, have a chat with Tim, Zoe or Maureen, if your lucky the kiln may be fired up, now that is exciting as it takes a week to fire and it only happens twice a year! You might wish to attend a glass making course?!
Enjoy you could pop to one of the many local pubs or even visit Theakston's Brewery at the same time!

The Legend. Brewed using a generous blend of finest pale, crystal and roasted barley malts, along with the majestic Fuggle hop, to create a wonderful, full-bodied flavour with subtle banana, cherry and rich fruit overtones.
A peculier tale:
Theakston’s most famous ale takes its name from the seal of the Peculier Court of Masham, which was granted back in the 12th century. It was the custom at the time for the church to administer the law, but this proved too arduous a task for the then Archbishop, who was based in York. So, with due archiepiscopal aplomb, he set up the independent Peculier Court, headed up by the Peculier of Masham.

Masham is a small market town and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. Situated in Wensleydale on the western bank of the River Ure, the name derives from the Anglo-Saxon Mæssa's Ham, the homestead belonging to Mæssa. The Romans had a presence here, but the first permanent settlers were the Angles. Around 900 AD the Vikings invaded the region, burning and laying waste to the church and causing great suffering in Masham. They also introduced sheep farming, something for which the town is well known today.
Masham was historically a large parish in the North Riding of Yorkshire. As well as the town of Masham the parish included the townships of Burton-on-Yore, Ellingstring, Ellington High and Low, Fearby, Healey with Sutton, Ilton cum Pott and Swinton. In 1866 the townships became separate civil parishes. Masham Moor was an area of moorland to the west of the parish bordering the West Riding, common to the parishes of Masham and East Witton. It was divided between the parishes of Healey, Ilton cum Pott and Colsterdale in 1934.
St Mary's Church was most likely founded in the seventh century and stood somewhere near the present town hall on what used to be known as Cockpit Hill. The graveyard yielded 36 burials in a recent excavation. The present church — while having some Anglo-Saxon stonework and the stump of an eighth-century prayer cross — is mainly Norman with fifteenth-century additions. Masham was given to York Minster in the mediaeval period but, as the archbishop did not wish to make the long journey north to oversee the town's affairs, the parish was designated a peculiar.
During the Middle Ages, Masham developed as a very small town with milling, mining, cloth making and tanning industries. The town received its first market charter in 1251. Masham's importance as a major sheep market is the reason for the large market place and its Georgian houses. The market originally thrived because of its nearness to Jervaulx and Fountains Abbeys, with their large flocks of sheep. From 1875 the town was served by the Masham branch of the North Eastern Railway. Passenger services were stopped in December 1930 with goods traffic continuing until 1963. The station was across the River Ure at Low Burton.
Masham market days are Wednesday, Saturday and Bank Holiday Monday with a Farmers' Market every first Sunday of the month from April to September. An annual Sheep Fair is held in September. The market place, the largest in the district, is tightly bordered on its south and west sides by ranges of two- and three-storey buildings. To the south-east, lies St. Mary's Church with its large yard.
Although Masham is relatively small town it has two working breweries, Black Sheep Brewery and Theakstons, situated only a few hundred yards from one another. The Black Sheep Brewery sponsors annual folk festivals. Previous performers have included Hugh Cornwell of The Stranglers. The Masham Steam Engine & Fair Organ Rally is held annually, organised by the Masham Town Hall Association; it began in 1965 to raise money for the local town hall. The town holds an arts festival every two years. The nearest railway stations are Thirsk and Northallerton both of which are on the East Coast Main Line. Buses operate from Ripon and the town is on the A6108 road between Ripon, Leyburn, Richmond and Scotch Corner.

This is our premium strength

and fruitiness from the Bramling

give XB the distinctively
complex aroma, making it the
beer to savour.
Theakston Old Peculier
The body is archiepiscopally full, rich and bejewelled. The taste is spiritually most refreshing. Perhaps they go too far, but some have called this beverage celestial or even divine; at the same time it is all too sublunary — worldly, very sensual. A paradox! The pious and the not-so-pious English ale-drinker alike consume it carefully and with due deference to the dignity of the ecclesiastical office. Whatever their sins, they give thanks to God that they were born Englishmen — or better still, Yorkshiremen — and that they have been vouchsafed the opportunity during this all-too-brief span to consume such a beer. Its votaries, when deprived of their Old Peculier, grow maddened and have been known to run amok; when there is a shortage of the brew in the depths of the severe north-country winter they sometimes throw themselves naked into the River Ure, hence the byname ‘lunatic’s broth’. 'Old Peculier' alludes to the designation in the 12th century of Masham — which earlier had been granted to York Minster — as a peculier (i.e. parish exempt from the archdiocese in which it is situated). The authors of this righteous beer are the God-fearing clan who since the great George Canning was prime minister have owned and run Theakston Brewery in the dear market town of Masham in Wensleydale. This bottle was purchased for £1.80 (c. €2.10, ¥270, $2.50) from an outlet of the Sainsbury's supermarket chain.
Theakston Old Peculier
Ale Degustation presents English Old Ale: Theakston Old Peculier
Brewed by Theakston
Old Peculier is possibly one of the country’s most well-known and loved ales. This unique, beautiful brew is often imitated but never matched and is sold literally all over the world. With countless awards to its credit, it is something of which every Briton can be very proud and is the epitome of the greatest of British brewing tradition. In the early years of the modern brewing era, about two hundred years ago, many brewers produced a dark, strong ‘stock’ beer in the winter months, to provide a base amount of fermented beer to add to beers brewed in the rather more volatile months of the summer. Old Peculier probably owes its origins to this. The name pays tribute to the unique ecclesiastical status of Masham as a ‘Court of the Peculier’ and is also reference to the strong characteristic of the beer! For many years it was affectionately referred to as Yorkshire’s ‘Lunatic’s Broth’.
Old Peculier is a beautiful, yet very simple beer, brewed using a very generous blend of finest pale, crystal and roasted barley with two bitter hops combined with the majestic and noble ‘Fuggle’ hop to produce a beer of awesome full-bodied flavour with subtle cherry and rich fruit overtones. It tastes superb when accompanied by rich stews, strong cheeses and sweet puddings.
