Tradition

These are our local coconutters, they do some traditional dances and are very popular. 

Today they're dancing at The Rushcart.

Whitworth Rushcart is one of a clutch of customs in the North West involving a large wheeled vehicle covered in rushes and flowers accompanied by morris dancers and music as it perambulates the locality – what makes this event unique is that the decoration is based on heather grown on the moors nearby.
