As well as the return of Carnival, the Well Dressing also came back to Whaley Bridge this year after the four year break.
The Well Dressing is now displayed at the "Art Box" by the entrance to the station car park, and the service of blessing was a complete contrast to the hurlyburly of Carnival in the Canal Basin the previous day.
The Band played some hymn tunes as people assembled, accompanied the singing during the service, and rounded up the proceedings with a few more hymn tunes at the end.

The portable PA system used for the Service was the one recently purchased by the Band with funds donated by Over The Road Charity Shop. What a fantastic community we are in Whaley, so many local organisations supporting each other.
