Lowland and Border Pipers' Society
The Lowland and Border Pipers' Society was formed in the early 1980s[1] to promote the study and playing of cauld-wind (bellows-blown) bagpipes of Northern England and south-east Scotland, such as the Scottish smallpipes, pastoral pipes, and border pipes. The organisation holds events and competitions, supplies instructional materials, and published a journal, Common Stock. The title of the journal refers to the array of drones on Lowland bagpipes which are grouped together in a "common stock" rather than separately attached to the bag such as on the Great Highland bagpipe.
