They were part of a team representing Debenham Youth Club and were collecting coins to contribute to the 'Mile of Pennies' that was being laid along the High Street to raise money for the rebuilding of the Community Centre which had just burned down. The older youth club members were dressed in 2075 costumes and the younger ones as if they were from 1875. Additional information supplied by Sue and Chris Holifield. Chris is wearing my Sue's wellies, which he had sprayed with silver car paint. Years later, their mum ([Kay Holifield]) was still wearing the boots, which still bore remnants of the silver paint.

Thumbnail Stagecoach at Debenham Festival, European Architectural Heritage Year 1975.By Deben Additional information supplied by Sue Holifield - The women sitting on the stage coach are models who took part in a fashion show staged by the British Wool Secretariat. The stage coach (which we believe was sponsored by Debenhams department store) took them on a tour of the village prior to the event, which was one of the first held during the festival weekend. The fashion show was held in Debenham Modern School on Thursday 19 June 1975. It had been scheduled to take place in the Community Centre, but was relocated after the Centre was destroyed by fire on 1st June 1975.
