Ales held in 1998
Ales were annual springtime celebrations which attracted folks from all over
a shire. From the 17th thru 19th centuries they were held at numerous
locations around England. Morris was one of the centerpiece sports at
the ales. These 20th century ales revive the conditions under which the morris
thrived.
