Gaydon villagers enjoyed the glorious sunshine while celebrating the coronation of King Charles III with a big lunch event on Sunday May 7.

Here are some pictures sent into us by Siobhan Hannan of Gaydon’s celebration of the coronation of King Charles III this month.

Villagers enjoyed the glorious sunshine during the big lunch event at the village hall on Sunday May 7.

They also enjoyed some competitions such as the best made crown fit for a king or queen, best dressed or fancy dress, best table centre and the best Victoria sponge.

A charity raffle was held with prizes being generously donated by local businesses and villagers alike and it raised more than £350 to be split between the village church and The Myton Hospices.

Siobhan said: “It was a fabulous day.

"It felt very special to come together as a community, young and old, new and long standing members of the village, to share this momentous occasion with fun, laughter and food.”
