A POPULAR flower festival returned last weekend for the Jubilee.
The Platinum Jubilee flower festival took place at St Stephen's Church in Acomb from June 3-5.
Display were arranged by the Acomb Flower Guild and there were also cream teas and refreshments on offer.
Speaking ahead of the event, Revd Pete Vivash, of Acomb Parish, said: “It is nearly 6 years since we held a flower festival in St Stephen’s church.
“I am delighted that we can again work hand in hand with the Acomb Flower Guild and I do hope people will come and enjoy this space.
“It seems highly appropriate on the Platinum Jubilee of her Majesty the Queen to do so again in church - in that faith is so important to her.”
