Today is Whit Friday and the day of the traditional Whit Walks and Band Contests in Mossley and Saddleworth.
Processions from the various churches in Saddleworth converge on Uppermill for a service of witness followed by a united walk through the village.

In the evening brass band competitions take place in many of the Saddleworth villages, as well as in Mossley, Stalybridge, Ashton and other places.
