A village is to hold a mass garage sale this month, come rain or shine.

Residents of Silver End will be opening their garages on October 25 from 11am to 4pm.

Organiser Fern Blackburn said: “We know a lot of people want to do a car boot sale but don't want the hassle of early mornings and loading bits into the car for no money and a lot of hard work.”

Contact 07724849887 if you are interested in taking part and maps will be available on the day.
