Sma Shot1

Sma Shot Day took place on Saturday 2nd July 2011.

The day commemorates the weavers victory over the Corks for payment of the Sma Shot - an interwoven thread which bound the cloth together but was unseen, hence the Corks refusal to pay for it.

However, after a long running dispute the Corks gave way and agreed to pay for the hidden thread.

After that time the first Saturday in July was declared a holiday in memory of a famous victory.

Sma Shot Daybegins with a parade starting from the Dooslan Stane in Brodie Park, at the head of the parade is a drummer beating the Charleston Drum followed by local dignitaries. The parade makes its way to Abbey Close where stalls and childrens rides took place.
