The sun shone on Pinchbeck Carnival and tractor run at the weekend.

The trophy was presented by Gary Slator who judged the event and allowed Birchgrove Garden Centre to be used as a meeting point on Sunday. Chris was a community stalwart and died in 2024 aged 84.
Saturday was very much carnival day with crowds turning out to support the event which featured a host of stalls and attractions at the Rotten Row playing field.
Entertainment included pupils from Pinchbeck East Academy Choir (picutred below), a tug of war and live music from Adam Patman, the Young Voices and Revolver.
There were craft competitions, cake competitions and the chance to have a photo taken with a huge furry gorilla doing its best King Kong impression.
