Bright St Breward sights bring carnival delight

BRIGHT sunshine and wide smiles were the order of the day as the carnival season in North Cornwall’s villages kicked off in earnest in St Breward.

The finale brought to end a much enjoyed and successful week of community events and festivities at the Bodmin Moor village with families and groups from both St Breward itself and further afield dressed up and decorated for the big village carnival parade.

Among the many events in the village was the popular scarecrow competition, with the theme for 2026 being related around the Pixar film series.

The winner of the 13 entries was Duncan and Mike of Haydown Close with the scarecrow referencing Woody, one of the main characters from the Toy Story series.
