THE traditional Bawming of the Thorn festival takes place this Saturday.
The procession leaves at 12.45pm before the ceremony around the tree in the centre of Appleton Thorn takes place at 1pm.
Children from Appleton Thorn Primary School will be taking part in the procession and dancing around the thorn tree.
There will then be the usual summer fair on the school field all afternoon.
