GREAT LONGSTONE WELL DRESSING - 2009The well dressing for 2009 will be put in place on the evening of Friday 17th July, ready for the official blessing at 2pm on Saturday 18th 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 DressingIt takes a week to make the well dressing and this will start with the puddling of the clay from 10am on Saturday 11th 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!)
