Informations supplémentaires

The Maypole at Barwick in Elmet is one of the tallest poles in the country and is the focus of major celebrations triennially. The pole is taken down on Easter Monday for refurbishing and is re-erected on the Spring Bank Holiday Monday, freshly painted, gilded and decked with new garlands. Processions take place during the day with floats, morris dancers, maypole dancing and a Maypole Queen with the focus of the festivities being the raising of the Pole. Filling in the backfill around the base takes some time so be prepared for a long wait if you volunteer to hang on to one of the ropes used to keep the pole upright. Later in the day a brave man will attempt to climb the pole and spin the weathervane at the top!
