Highlights: The Linton Festival nr Ross

Highlights: The Linton Festival nr Ross
This year, The Linton Festival celebrated its 18th year - championing the very best in live rock and blues since 2001.
Ìý
The event began when some of the regulars of The Alma Inn realised it would be cheaper to get The Producers to come to Linton, rather than hire a mini bus and drive all the way to Poole in Dorset.
Ìý
Then they decided rather than having one band - they'd have loads!
Ìý
Big Country headlined this year's event.
