More about this scene
Atherstone is one of only two places where the game of Shrovetide football is played; the other is Ashbourne in Derbyshire. In 1846 the game was finally banned from the streets of Derby. Hence comes the expression a 'Derby game' when two local teams play one another. The school has a charter dating back to the 16th century.
