This is outside the town of Nantwich, in northwestern England, and apparently a giant wicker something is an annual thing local ice cream shop Snugburys does, according to the Chester Chronicle — more about that at Snugburys’ site.

Snugburys is also offering a “Dalick” cone this summer:

So this gets burned down at the end of summer in a giant bonfire?

I read this in a Dalek voice, and it made me so very happy.

Looks like a good harvest for the Daleks this year, mm?

Somewhere, Christopher Lee is plotting Edward Woodward’s pagan Dalek demise…
