SK4641 : Thursday at the Fair

Ilkeston, Derbyshire, Great Britain

Thursday at the Fair
Thursday at the Fair
Crowds gather outside the Town Hall on Thursday just before noon for the official opening of the Annual Charter Fair and once the ceremonial bells have been rung they scramble to join the Mayoral Party for a customary free ride on the Dodgems. This picture shows onlookers patiently waiting for the Mayor to make his way in front of the Waltzer. The 2005 fair was the 753rd - images from the 750th can be seen at LinkExternal link
