This week we’ve delved into the archives to bring you 48 archive photos of St George's Day celebrations in the Corby, Kettering, Rushden and Wellingborough areas.
As well as uniformed organisations taking part in parades, we have found pictures of people – young and old – getting in the party spirit to mark April 23.
There are dragons, knights in shining armour and some damsels – not strictly historically accurate but by the look on the faces of those taking part, a good time was had by all.
