Saddleworth Rush-bearing, 21-22 August 2004
Some pictures from the summer's trip, courtesy of Mistress Wilkes.
See Saddleworth's site.
It's simple, really;
you just click on the little picture with your mouse and a somewhat bigger one pops up.

The Aldbury men bravely undertake to pull the rushcart on their own... |
|
 |
All work and no play etc. etc. |

A bloke with a funny hat... |
|
 |
The Aldbury men wave their big sticks... |
|
 |
Look! Actual dancing! |
|
 |
The cart in progress. |
|
 |
Waving with intent... |
|

It's that very tall bloke with the funny hat again... |
