CROFT came to a standstill on Saturday for the biggest date on the village calendar.

Croft Carnival brought the village to life with a colourful day of celebrations.

Both the carnival queen and princess were crowned.

Gracie Cripps, 11, who attends Croft Primary School is the new queen and Alice Hughes, eight, who is in year three at the same school in the princess.

Colourful floats were on show from the likes of Croft WI, Croft Rainbows and Brownies, Tiny Acorns, Croft Primary, St Lewis Primary and Croft Young Farmers.

The fun then continued on the field afterwards with a variety of stalls, contest and demonstrations.
