LEOMINSTER'S annual Victorian Christmas street market brought out the crowds on Saturday, December 8.

Featuring Queen Victoria, who was accompanied by the mayor, town councillors and many others in Victorian dress, the festive event which was officially opened by Leominster's Town Crier, Richard Brookman, saw a wide variety of stallholders packed into Corn Square and lining Broad Street selling a range of crafts and gifts alongside local and seasonal produce.

Visitors to the event were treated to traditional street entertainment and musical performances whilst they browsed the stalls, including performances from the Leominster Morris Men and Medieval and Tudor music from Medieval Minstrels, the Ledbury Waytes.
