THE hunt is on for the 2018 Fernhurst May Queen and attendants – and girls aged 10-16, who live in the village, are invited to apply.

The May Queen plays a central role in the annual Fernhurst Revels on Sunday, May 20, and this year’s selection will be made at 6pm on Thursday, March 15.

In addition to being crowned and opening the fete, together with her attendants, the queen will also take centre stage at other village events, including turning on the Christmas lights.

Anyone wanting to apply is asked to call Sandra Skelton on (01428) 480278.
