RESIDENTS flocked from in and around Alcester to the town's annual Mop fair this week.
The traditional event started with a proclamation from High Bailiff Keith Martin at 4pm yesterday, along with bread-weighing and ale-tasting.
Court Leet officers also inspected trades around the town, echoing Alcester's market-town traditions, while children enjoyed rides at the funfair, which lined the streets on both Monday and Tuesday.
Every youngster from the town also enjoyed their traditional free ride, celebrating the historical event, which began as a servants' hiring fair.
