Cathy's Say
For a short break in a holiday cottage Staffordshire has a lot to offer. This property is close to Abbot's Bromley, an attractive village with an ancient church and several half-timbered buildings. It is famous for the Abbot's Bromley Horn Dance, a tradition going back to medieval times, performed annually in September. After collecting the horns from the church at eight o'clock in the morning, the Horn Dancers comprising six Deer-men, a Fool, Hobby Horse, Bowman and Maid Marian, perform their dance to music provided by a melodeon player at locations throughout the village and its surrounding farms and pubs.
