Beating the Bounds, Truro, Cornwall. 4th October 1912

Beating the Bounds, the Mayor and his party on The Green, Truro, (now Truro bus station) together with many children playing. Beating the Bounds is an old tradition whereby officials of the parish share their knowledge of the boundaries of their territory. Sometimes prayers would be offered for the protection of the fields and land, and to bless the land to ensure fertility. Photographer: Arthur William Jordan
