A scarecrow festival and open gardens day is to be repeated in the Long Lee and Thwaites Brow areas of Keighley.

The Village Society is inviting residents to open their gardens or get together with others to make a scarecrow.

The festival, on a date to be arranged this spring, follows the success of the inaugural event last year.

Society spokesman June Keeler said: β€œIt went very well because we had parking in the car park next to the village hall and we served teas. People went round to see the scarecrows and judged the best ones, then looked at the gardens.”

Anyone interested in taking part should contact June on (01535) 210722.
