CROWDS thronged a village fete.

The sun shone and the playing fields of Guilden Sutton CE Primary School were alive with activities for the fete, relaunched 12 months ago after a 25 year break.

New events included hay bale rolling, street dancing by the 1st Guilden Sutton Cubs, a coconut shy and a bouncy castle.

Other attractions included the Chester Schools Dance Band, dancers from the Guilden Sutton-based Nina Gaskell School of Dance, a host of stalls and an exciting raffle.
