Saddleworth Rushcart In Dobcross Square
Here’s a video of the moment on Saturday afternoon when the Saddleworth Rushcart arrived in Dobcross Square. The Saddleworth Morris Men were joined by groups of dancers from around the country, as they also took the cart around Uppermill, Greenfield and Delph.
Further coverage of Saddleworth Rushcart from Saddleworth News can be found here.
