The annual Scarecrow Festival was held this weekend with 45 houses in the village registered to take part.

Dozens of scarecrows were on display outside of houses and in gardens.

Imaginative entries featured a butcher with sausages, hairdresser, pirate and farmer.

The event was followed by a barbecue where the winner of the scarecrow competition was announced.
