Morris dancers, sea shanties and a clogging workshop made up some of the attractions in the town when the Deal Folk By The Sea festival kicked off.

The event started on Friday, with music and entertainment in the pubs, Landmark Centre, The Astor Theatre and in the streets of Deal.

Rose Dowd of the festival organising group said: “One of the really fantastic features of our festival is the sheer variety of music which is happening.

“This year is no exception and we had three packed days of great pub gigs, sing-arounds and play-arounds and street performances.

“We will had more than 30 different sessions over the weekend.”

Saturday saw Offcumduns Day of Dance with several Morris and Clog dance ‘sides’ from around the county performing in the High Street and on the seafront.
