Field recording with Paxton House curator Martha Andrews on the shingle shore at Paxton netting station on the River Tweed in the Scottish Borders. Martha talks about the history of netting and the decline in fishing on the River Tweed, as the fishing boat rows a shot in the background. Recorded by Jules Horne for 'Working the Tweed', an arts-science collaboration around the River Tweed catchment, supported by Creative Scotland for Year of Natural Scotland 2013. www.workingthetweed.co.uk
