Appleton Thorn is a village in the borough of Warrington in Cheshire, England.
Appleton appeared in the Domesday survey as Epeltune, meaning “the tun where the apples grew”.
Bawming the Thorn
Each June, the village hosts the ceremony of “Bawming the Thorn”. The current form of the ceremony dates from the 19th century, when it was allowance of the village’s “walking day”. It involved kids from Appleton Thorn Primary School walking through the village and holding sports and games at the school. This now takes place at the village hall. The ceremony stopped in the 1930s, but was revived by the then headmaster, Bob Jones, in 1973. “Bawming the Thorn” occurs on the Saturday nearest to Midsummer’s Day.
Local schoolchildren dance in checking account to the tree in the style of a maypole chanting verses to the melody of Bonnie Dundee, with the subsequently repeated chorus:
Bawming means “decorating” – during the ceremony the thorn tree is decorated with ribbons and garlands. According to legend, the hawthorn at Appleton Thorn grew from a sharp of the Holy Thorn at Glastonbury, which was itself said to have sprung from the staff of Joseph of Arimathea, the man who arranged for Jesus’s burial after the crucifixion.
