South Petherwin's second annual scarecrow festival has been  a great success, with parishioners and visitors alike enjoying a week of scarecrow themed activities.

For the second year South Petherwin found itself invaded by over 60 Scarecrows. From Daws House to Trekelland, scarecrows of all shapes and sizes seemed to pop up from nowhere, encouraging a smile from passers by.
