Some Pictures of Previous Years
Barlow wells have been dressed, year on year, for at least 150 years.

More often than not, over the years, the 'Main' well has been dressed with four pictures but occasionally there have been three, one large one at the back and one on either side. On the odd year there has just been one picture curving round from the back to the sides as shown on these examples from 1973 and 1975. The one picture design has become popular again in recent times and has been done this way since 2006.
