About
Well Dressings are a unique and ancient Derbyshire tradition consisting of pictures made of flowers, petals and leaves pressed into clay-covered boards.
In Holymoorside we make one of the largest single well dressings using only flowers and leaves from local gardens and hedgerows. There will also be a smaller children's well and teens' well at the same location.
Well Blessing with Holymoorside Brass Band at 7.00pm on Thursday 25th August.
