“We had really good weather and terrific support from the town. Everything went beautifully.”
The traditional float parade saw five excellently-decorated floats take to the streets, accompanied by a number of walking groups.
The carnival court was also in attendance. This year’s queen was Kate Darby and her attendants were Connie Sharman, Arabella Smallman and Charlie McNamee.
