Merrie England
A celebration of English history and local figures in Sutton Coldfield, near Birmingham
Overview
Medieval style pageants, complete with horses and unusual costumes, plus a procession of solemn looking choir boys and a troop of Roman soldiers somehow all intermingle in this large-scale celebration of English history. Also out in force are the seated older folk who pay keen attention.
