After a gap of more than 15 years, people in Chartham celebrated the return of their village fete.

More than 1,000 people attended the resurrected event on the Memorial Field.

Attractions included a bouncy castle, coconut shy, face-painting, sideshows and a novelty duck race,

One of the organisers Peter Harrington said: “It was a fantastic day which went swimmingly and attracted an enormous number of people.
