Ferry Fair Day (10 August) is the most exciting day of the year for a lot of local children (and adults!). This is the day that all the children in the Court get dressed up and take part in the Tour of the Burgh before the Main Procession takes us along the High Street for the formal crowning of the Ferry Fair Queen by our Gracious Person.
