Newbold verdon Scarecrow Trail 2018

On the weekend of 26th and 27th May 2018 the village of Newbold Verdon received a dose of movie magic as the community got together to create the village’s first scarecrow trail on the theme of “Newbold Verdon at the Movies”.

The event, which was the brainchild of Newbold resident Cerys Statham, tasked village residents to create scarecrows on a theme of “The Movies” and with almost every movie genre represented visitors where treated to a variety of creations from the Titanic on the cob shop through to the Tardis on Brascote lane and the entire cast of Charlie And The Chocolate Factory at the primary school the creations brought plenty of Hollywood movie magic to the Leicestershire village.
