Horncastle area residents came out in force on Friday afternoon (May 8) to celebrate the 75th anniversary of VE Day - from the safety of their own front gardens!
Due to the ongoing coronavirus lockdown, members of the public across the country were asked to mark the occasion with a ‘stay at home’ party on their porch, driveway, or garden.
