The village horticultural society’s Summer Show welcomed visitors to a stunning collection of produce and crafts, where the stars of the show were the beautiful and fragrant displays of sweet peas and roses, in shades ranging from delicate pastels to deep reds and purples.

Elsewhere there were competitions for garden produce, floral art, wildlife photography and Lego models, while homemade cakes and cream teas were served throughout the afternoon.
