  • Description

    "The granting of a royal charter to hold a fair in Broughton is commemorated annually on 1st August in the village square. In 1976 I assume that the ceremony was held on the 2nd August as the 1st fell on a Sunday. After the reading, there was a general movement to the Manor Arms to claim the traditional free pint!"
