A dance around a Maypole by a dozen or so costumed girks in a Coronation Day ceremony in a park (probably Lakeside Park) in which a Queen of the May will be crowned. In the left lower corner there are two girls, wearing hennin (conical hats with fabric attached to the peak). Spectators line a fence in the background.
