Here we see a Maytime scene of the long, tongue-shaped village green, with the church of St George in the background, and the chestnut trees in full blossom.
Here we see a Maytime scene of the long, tongue-shaped village green, with the church of St George in the background, and the chestnut trees in full blossom.
Children may have played on this maze on the green for centuries: it is thought that it was re-cut from an older maze in 1666 by William Sparrow.
The shops, work-shops and brick houses are built on the street edge, while the older cottages and farmhouses are set back, possibly on the line of the original village green.
The mile post on the former green was set up by the Turnpike Trust in the 18th century for travellers using the new turnpike roads.
One such course hired a full military band - try timing shots to the strains of 'Annie Laurie' - but Braid got his own back on the last green when he put his ball straight through the big bass drum.
Three balls, one white, one red and one blue, were paraded around the town.
Bus shelters, one with a shopper waiting, occupy Tudor Square, once called Bally Green, at the end of Market Street, which is Dalton's main shopping street.
