More than 120 scarecrows are believed to have been entered into the North Lancing’s scarecrow festival, which does not announce a winner as it would rather focus on the joy of participation.
This is the fourth year the festival has taken place and it has grown massively since its conception with chairman of the parish Mike Mendoza and members of North Lancing committee Maureen Ross and Carson Albury among the judges.
