The village came to life with scarecrows everywhere; up posts, sitting in chairs and having tea.

The Little Downham scarecrow fair was brilliant. The village came to life with scarecrows everywhere; up posts, sitting in chair, having tea, peeping over walls and even ‘asleep’ in wheelbarrows. Many thanks to Paul Quant who organised the event, which made �600, for the village primary school.
