Put your best foot forward as we mark the ancient art of Maypole dancing in the Sunderland and East Durham areas.
Every year, Hetton Lyons Primary School celebrated the age-old tradition and here is a reminder of the pupils showing off their dancing skills between 1996 and 2008.
It’s a fantastic display of Sunderland Echo archive
And if you want more of a step back in time, there are lots of ways to relive the past.
There is plenty more nostalgia to enjoy on the Sunderland Echo website, its Facebook page and the Echo’s sister Facebook page which is called Wearside Echoes and is dedicated to all things retro from Wearside and East Durham.
