Marlow Bottom's annual scarecrow trail has returned this week with some amazing displays on show.

Scarecrows have been designed and inspired by all sorts including Pokemon, Paddington Bear, Peter Rabbit, dragons, and Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as well as a host of spooky creations.

The Halloween trail opened on Sunday (October 23) and will run until Saturday (October 29).

Maps of the trail are available from Tin Town Coffee, The Barn Club and Da Luca at a cost of £2 per map or via this email (scarecrow@friendsofburford.org.uk).

Organised by Friends of Burford, all the money raised will be donated to Burford School to put towards funding school projects and improvements.

A social media post said: "So we can officially announce the annual Marlow Bottom Scarecrow Festival is now open!

"We have already seen some fantastic creations pop up across the valley.

"You can buy maps from Tin Town, Da Luca or the Barn club for £2 or email scarecrow@friendsofburford.org.uk.

"Please can we ask you to drive and park considerately, using the car parks identified on the map.

"And more importantly enjoy, have fun (try not to get too wet!) and give generously it is all for a good cause after all and Burford School will be extremely grateful."
