Happy Plough Monday, everyone!

After the blessing of the plough on the village green at 6.30pm, The Hockham Clodhoppers parade around the village in a torchlight procession behind a small hand drawn plough, stopping to dance at various spots.

  • love going to the rushcart festival in saddleworth to see all the mentals dancing.

    also, some of them black up. apparently because of coal.

    • They black up for Plough Monday too, because they go kind of trick or treating and it disguises them if they have to do mischief.

      The BBC4 programme with the Unthanks did some stuff on it. Great programme.
