The going is going to be good this Easter weekend, as point-to-point returns to Aldington, near Ashford.

The Aldington Races have delighted families for almost six decades and will feature racing as well as attractions including terrier racing, bale throwing, tug of war, falconry displays and a funfair.

Sponsored by Furley Page and Strutt & Parker, the meeting is on Easter Monday, April 22, with the first race at 2pm.

Gates open at 10am. Tickets cost £10 on the day or £8.50 online, with under 14s free.

Jeremy Licence of Furley Page, said: “This year’s event promises to be a fantastic day out for the whole family.”

There is no dress code but visitors should wear appropriate footwear.
