Lysanderix Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 I seem to recall that Boxing Day saw knurr and spell being played in Grenoside . Handsworth saw traditional sword dancers performing and Ecclesfield had its Beagle hounds hunting down a poor fox. I wonder how many other traditional activities took place…or still happen? ( hunting a bargain in the sales excepting) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyn 1 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 sword dancing is probably happening about now in Grenoside 11am I believe every boxing day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
