The local carnival has long been a summer highlight for many. Tombola goodies won, queens crowned, teachers splatted, fancy dress displayed and so much more.

Sadly the annual fun event will be missing from across the region, as Covid-19 sees events cancelled.

So let's fill the void with your photos or stories from carnivals gone by, and relive those fun, heydays of summer.
