In photos: Craft fair attracts crowds to Burnham's Marine Cove

A fundraising craft fair held in Burnham-On-Sea's Marine Cove gardens attracted crowds of visitors on Saturday (August 11th).

The event was boosted by glorious sunshine and a good turnout of traders.

Traders said they felt the fair was a good use of the recently-restored gardens and organisers said it also encouraged visitors into the town centre and seafront.

Community Gardener Jacqui Strong told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "I am pleased with how the day went, the sun was shining, and people were visiting the garden throughout the afternoon."

The Friends of Marine Cove also served cream teas during the afternoon also sold items helping to raise funds for future events.

The next large event, a community coffee morning, will be held in the gardens in aid of Macmillan Cancer Research on Friday 28th September between 10am and noon.
