Scarecrows return

PUCKLECHURCH’S annual May Day Bank Holiday Scarecrow Trail is back next month.

People can collect trail maps, tickets and clues/entry forms from St Thomas a Becket 

Church from 11.30am on May 4 or 10.30am on May 5 before heading out around the village, finding and guessing the names of the scarecrows in front gardens.

Prizes are available for the best scarecrow voted by the public and also for most scarecrow names correctly guessed.

Tickets cost £5 for a family, £2 per adult and £1 per child or student.

There are also sandwiches, cakes and cream teas available at the church during the event.

Visitors need to bring cash with them for the refreshments, as the village has no cash machines.

Entry forms need to be returned by 4pm each day. There will be a presentation of the answers on Monday at 4pm in church and the answers will also be added to the Pucklechurch Scarecrow Trail Facebook page, where there are more details.
