PEOPLE have been celebrating at a week long community festival.

A barn dance, tea dance, historical walk and an open garden day were just some of the events during Hither Green Week.

More than 300 people attended a Spring Fayre which included arts and craft, food stalls, music, African drumming and Morris dancing.

Hither Green Community Association spokeswoman, Jo Deverson, said: “It was fantastic for people in the area to get together and celebrate what we have got.

“People really want to make Hither Green a friendly and safer place to live and this was a good way to do it.”

The community association and St Swithun's Church in Hither Green Lane organised the festival.
