A GANGSTA Granny and Captain Underpants will feature in a scarecrow trail.

Bishop William Ward Primary School is hosting Great Horkesley’s first scarecrow-themed event. Each class at the school has made a scarecrow to feature in the trail which will be running until Friday.

Scarecrows will be on display around the village between 9am and 4pm.

Teri Duckworth, from Friends of Bishop William Ward, said: “People can take part in the trail whenever they like and can make their way around the village. Trail maps cost £1 each and purchasing a trail map will enable you to vote for your favourite scarecrow.

Trail maps can obtained from Blue Owl in Nayland Road, and The Wine Centre, Great Horkesley Garage and the Yew Tree pub.

Money raised will go to to the Friends group.
