Branch Meetings and Socials

  • Social Saturday - Huddersfield Saturday 1 August 2026 Darlington Train Station

    It's been a while since had a town walk so we're planning on a trip to much-recommended Huddersfield.

    As usual, the Social Saturdays are a 'make-your-own-way' trip rather than using transport paid for by the branch. In this case there two trains an hour from Darlington, the preferred times being either 10:11 or 10:35 departures, arriving in Huddersfield at 12:05 or 12:20 respectively. We will meet in The Kings Head at the station.

    The pubs and route will be finalised closer to the time but we will be including the following Good Beer Guide pubs:

    • King's Head
    • Head of Steam- 2024 Huddersfield CAMRA Mild POTY
    • The Sportsman - 2025 Huddersfield CAMRA Cider POTY, 15+ years in GBG
    • The Grove - 15+ years in GBG
    • County Beerhouse - 2024 Huddersfield CAMRA POTY
    • The Star
    • The Rat & Ratchet - Ossett Brewery Brew Pub, 35+ Years in GBG
  • Barnard Castle Meet Up Saturday 15 August 2026 13:00 Old Well Inn

    Members of the committee will be heading to Barnard Castle to give Barney branch members chance to meet up, say hello and talk about CAMRA issues.

    We will finish with a walk around the town's best real ale pubs for those who want to join us.
