Stapleford Wake Week

By Alice Cave

Stapleford Wake Week

Tradition has it that Stapleford Wake Week was held in October, around St Luke's Day. This makes Stapleford unusual, as the parish church is dedicated to St Helen. It's the old Saxon cross now in the churchyard that provides the link to St Luke.

The Old Cross, Stapleford
