Hundreds of visitors are enjoying a sunny day at Tavistock’s famous historic Goose Fair with streets packed with food and drink stalls, local crafts and arts and a fun fair.

There was even the return of the sheep, ponies, cattle at the cattle market and two special guest geese - back after the avian flu restrictions.

Mayor Cllr Paul Ward said the event remained the biggest event in the town’s calendar and encouraged people to enjoy the attractions and the existing shops and market.

The street fair runs all day and the fun fair later. Parking is very limited with park and ride recommended at Gulworthy and Yelverton and Whitchurch Down.
