Framed Print of Fishing Industry: He Hears The Cockles Singing. For sixty years
Fishing Industry: He Hears The Cockles Singing. For sixty years, old Tom Wilson has been listening to cockles singing on the sandbanks of Morecambe Bay, Lancs. Sing? says Tom, Sometimes they re as noisy as the whistle of a train. Twice a day for sixty years he has led his donkey and cart on the six-mile walk to the sands from the village of Flookburgh. With him he takes his jumbo - a wooden device like a couple of cricket wickets. When he rocks the jumbo to and fro the cockles are coaxed to the surface and Toms son, Harold, gathers them in. But now the Army are making a road from the village to the sands, and may soon use the area for tank training. If they do, old Tom will retire, and the other men of the village who have made their living from the singing cockes may have to go elsewhere. Rocking his jumbo to and fro, old Tom Wilson coaxes the cockles to the surface of the sands. December 1947. Pensioners
