In the shadow of Lichfield Cathedral, a timeless tradition unfolds as the Greenhill Bower procession gracefully winds its way through the historic town. This print from May 2nd, 1956, transports us back to the vibrant atmosphere of mid-20th century Staffordshire. The majestic silhouette of Lichfield Cathedral stands tall in the background, casting its protective shadow over this cherished event. As locals and visitors alike gather along the streets, anticipation fills the air for what promises to be a day filled with celebration and community spirit.
