Green Man causes trouble.
At a well dressing service, the Rector of Eyam has refused to bless one of the wells because it depicts a pagan symbol: the Green Man.
Odd. Quite a few cathedrals (including Canterbury, Gloucester, Exeter and Carlisle) and many other churches have Green Man carvings.
Originally well dressing was a pagan festival which was banned by the church.
