Extracts from the Press Report
Lymm Rushbearing
The "Lymm Greys" have had their rushbearing, though a month
since there were divers forebodings that there would be no rush cart,
morris dancers, or races....
...On Saturday there was a rush cart, drawn by four
greys (hence the cognomen of "Lymm Greys") accompanied by
morris dancers and a band of musicians.
