In photos: Large crowds attend St John's Church fair in Highbridge

Celebrations to mark the 150th year of St John's Church in Highbridge continued on Saturday (June 20th) when it held its annual summer fair.

Sunny weather attracted large crowds to the event, which was held at St John's School.

They enjoyed an afternoon of live music, and a wide range of stalls and entertainment from local groups and charities.

The fair was opened by Burnham-On-Sea and Highbridge's Deputy Mayor Danny Titcombe and Deputy Mayoress Jo Hughes, alongside Julian Luttrell, the former Vice Chairman of Air Ambulance.

Reverend Robin Lodge told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "Mr Luttrell is a descendant of Mary Anne Poole, whose donation led to the construction of the church 150 years ago, so it was wonderful to have him here today."
