Today the May Queen is a girl who must ride or walk at the front of a parade for May Day celebrations. She wears a white gown to symbolise purity and usually a tiara or crown. Her duty is to begin the May Day celebrations. She is generally crowned by flowers and makes a speech before the dancing begins. Certain age groups dance round a Maypole celebrating youth and the spring time.

Looks like the field where the leisure centre is now.
Looks like Walker Lane fields where we used to hold our Games when I was at Leigh St Secondary 1957 - 1961
Sometime between the wars judging by the headgear in evidence.
