The Coquetdale Music Trust (registered charity 1153015) runs a community music centre in the Old Church - a former United Reformed Church - in Thropton, near Rothbury in the Coquet Valley, Northumberland. Established in 2013 to promote music, dance, poetry and the arts, it hosts concerts, recording sessions, masterclass arts weekends and exhibitions, with regular fortnightly folk sessions of Northumbrian, Irish, Scottish and contemporary traditional tunes. Its concert programme brings touring folk, roots and blues names to the valley at 7.30pm - the autumn 2026 season includes Claude Bourbon, Sam Kelly with Jamie Francis and the Grace Smith Trio. It's a warm, rural grass-roots hub built around folk and acoustic music.
