Assembling up somewhere near Weston Park Road
Uni: PPSU "Jazz" RAG Street Parade, Plymouth, Devon - 17th February 1986
It's the day of the big RAG Parade through Plymouth City Centre. It starts from somewhere out in Peverell before winding through the legendary students' favourite area of Mutley, followed by a trip down North Hill and a brief stop to gather together some more floats on the Glanville Street car park in front of the Engineering Block. From there, the parade heads down Cornwall Street, round the top and back down New George Street before heading up and down Royal Parade.
