Lambs and children competed to be the cutest of all during Mount Ephraim gardens Pat a Lamb event.

The annual event took place during the Bank Holiday weekend, and the sun shone down as crowds of people flocked to take part.

This year the lambs were loaned from the school for the deaf at Monkshill which has its own commercial farm.

Lesley Dawes said: “The weather was wonderful and there were a lot of happy people.

“We had around 350 visitors on each day - it’s a corny idea but people just love it.”
