Well Dressing
15 - 21 August 2018
The ancient Derbyshire custom of Well Dressing is brought to life in Barlow with 3 Wells being dressed.
Each Dressing depicts a different scene, teams of skilled 'dressers' with varying techniques produce fantastic pictures made up of flowers, seeds, grasses (anything that grows really!)
