MPX5158017: Customs: Clipping the yews: Every September the children of the Gloucestershire village of Painswick embrace their church by linking hands and forming a ring round it. Then they dance backwards and forwards so that the ring expands and contracts with their movements. At the same time they chant an age-old hymn. A short sermon preached from a little door in the tower follows, and afterwards each child is given a bun. September 1964 (b/w photo) / Bridgeman Images
