Tales from the Bury St Edmunds Pageant - (6) Margaret Steed
Margaret Steed (nee Byford) was born in Sudbury, and has lived in Suffolk her whole life. When she was 15 she took a role in the pageant in the Eatanswill Election scene, which was based on Charles Dickens's Pickwick Papers. Margaret kindly agreed to be interviewed by Tom, and shared some of her lovely memories of the pageant - as well as some photos!
