PICTURE SPECIAL: Fantastic straw-filled creations at Northowram Scarecrow Festival

Visitors have been flocking to Northowram to spot a host of colourful and creative scarecrows.

This village's three-day scarecrow festival kicked off yesterday (Saturday) with an opening ceremony that included a performance from Calderdale singer Lizzie Jones.

Residents and businesses have come up with a variety of different straw-filled creations for people to find, and the event also includes entertainment and refreshments.

The fun continues tomorrow (Monday) from 10am.
