Looking back: 20 photos of Pace Egg Plays being performed in the Calder Valley over the years

Ahead of this year’s traditional Page Egg play, we have taken a look through the archive at some previous performances.

Pace Egg plays are traditional plays with their own unique character and are performed during Easter, mainly in the north-western corner of England.

The traditional Pace Egg plays are performed in the Calder Valley, including at Heptonstall’s Weavers Square on Good Fridays, attracting hundreds of visitors to the village.
