The centenary celebration of women’s franchise was an excellent reason for Wiveliscombe to celebrate with a special walk. The group, many dressed as suffragettes in their colours of purple, green, red and white, marched through the town to the square singing the suffragette anthem and continued through the Town and into the countryside.
Long skirts were hitched up, hills surrounding Wiveliscombe climbed and the group finally gathered in the local hostelry.
