Ancient traditions and traditional games, BBQ, stalls and live music. The
newly elected Mock Mayor always ends up in the river Glyme!
This event
starts at 3.00pm and does not finish until late…great for kids in the
afternoon and early evening with tug of war, punch and judy, coconut shy,
‘slippery pole jousting’, crockery smashing, Morris Men, fiddlers, the

BBQ.
At 6.00 speeches are made and the new Mock Mayor is elected and
