Well dressing - a traditional Peak District craft. One of the last this year is in the village of Foolow, right on the boundary between the southern White Peak (on limestone) and the northern Dark Peak (on gritstone). Only natural materials are used, these being pressed into clay held in a well-soaked wooden frame. A large display takes between three and five days to complete, with an average of four to five people working simultaneously.
