This year's Scarecrow Trail and Summer Fayre was a resounding success, with the quality of the scarecrows continuing to get better and better each year, both in the originality of the ideas and the wonderful detail in their building. The end result is an event that is enjoyed by both villagers and visitors alike.

Voting in this year's competition was fairly close, due to the large number of very high quality scarecrows. Altogether, over forty different scarecrows were voted for, and the winners are given below:

First:

#69, More of an Inconvenience, by Jan Field

Second:

#64, The Flintstones, by Helen Prentice

Third:

#141, The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe, by the Hill family

More of an Inconvenience

The following scarecrows (in alphabetical order) also received a significant number of votes

#41, A Water Feature
#125, Hot Gossip
#112, I Will be Back!
#104, Long Ago
#49, Noah's Ark
#56, Only Fools and Horses
#95, Whacko Jackrow - Thriller!!!

Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to everybody who made a scarecrow - without your wonderful efforts there would be no trail.

All 168 scarecrow photos are available below. This includes a considerable number of additional scarecrows that were not entered for the event, so were not in the event guide. We have broken the scarecrow listing down into several pages, following the maps in the printed scarecrow programme. This stops any one page taking too long to download.
