GREAT LONGSTONE WELL DRESSING - 2007

The well dressing for 2007 will be put in place on the evening of Friday 13th July, ready for the official blessing at 2pm on Saturday 14th July and will remain on view until the following weekend..

The dressing will, as usual, be on display on the village green, in front of the school.

After the blessing of the well dressing the May Queen will open the Church Fete.

Making the Well Dressing

It takes a week to make the well dressing and this will start with the puddling of the clay from 10am on Saturday 7th July.

It would be great to have lots of help during the week, especially with the puddling and wooling, and later in the week for petalling. (Children and teenagers we really need your help on Saturday morning for puddling.  Wear old clothes!)

All of the work will take place in the garage on the left (East) side of the White Lion.

The programme is::

Saturday 7th Julyfrom 10 am PUDDLING
Sunday 8th Julyfrom 10am WOOLING
Monday 9th July
