More about this scene
The River Windrush threads through Bourton, carpeted on either bank by broad greens. One of the village's more eccentric traditions is a football match which locals play each August Bank Holiday as they have done for many years past - up to their knees in the river. It is quite a spectacle, and crowds gather annually to witness the madness. At least they know there is no chance of the match being cancelled owing to a waterlogged pitch.
