Return of the Gala

Today's Durham Miners' Gala was the first since 2019.
Bands & banners on Elvet Bridge, heading for the racecourse
On return from the racecourse, bands play a set piece outside the County Hotel .....
..... before heading home, playing for crowds en route to the market
A few banners are blessed by the Bishop in Durham Cathedral,
in the Miners' Service, then marched out resounding to their bands
