Britannia Coco-nut Dancers of Bacup, Lancashire.

Bacup is a small Pennine Town situated between Rochdale and Burnley. On Easter Saturday the "Nutters" dance their way through the streets following a route that sees them visiting all the town's boundaries. The dancers are accompanied by members of Stacksteads Silver Band. Seven dances are performed in total: five Garland Dances, simply known as numbers 1 to 5, and two Nut Dances 'Thowd Cash' and the 'Figures'.
