"Lymm is a sleepy hollow..."
Widnes Examiner, 18th August, 1888 p5 

Extracts from Press Report

Lymm Morris Dancers
Lymm is a sleepy hollow, but "wakes" once a year. The Morris dancers and the rush bearers have not yet gone out; but they are going out.

Rushcart
On Saturday last, instead of the orthodox ruch cart, a coal waggon adorned with rushes was brought into us. Picture a coal waggon as the central feature of a rural festivity? It is all over with Lymm Wakes
