The Annual Bonfire and Grand Firework Display was held as usual in Parson’s Meadow with a bumper attendance this year.

The weather was perfect for the event and the limit of 1,000 people in the meadow led to some 50 to 60 people standing by the bridge with slightly limited vision at times. The hog roast plus other hot foods were enjoyed but completely sold out.

The glow sticks, toffee apples and candy floss were also very popular! It was a great community event and Chairman Andrew Davy thanked Celebration Fireworks for the amazing display, Edmundson of Plymouth, TMS garage at Upton Cross and anyone else for their donations.
