Re: Cross on the Coppice!
The cross on the Coppice goes up on the Saturday before Palm Sunday. This is erected by the Accrington Knights of Saint Columba. On Palm Sunday a procession, carrying a light wooden replica goes from Broadway to the summit. This procession is an interdenominational procession made of of all member sof the Christian community in Accrington. On Good Friday an interdenominational group go from the top of Avenue Parade making the Stations of the Cross. On Easter Sunday at 7.30 am a group meet on the summit of the Coppice to welcome Easter Sunday withy prayers
