The annual Alresford Watercress Festival in, Hampshire featured a parade through the streets which included pupils from Sunhill Infant and Junior School, morris dancers and a horse and cart carrying the festival’s king and queen who distributed watercress to members of the public.
There was music and around 120 stalls.
The World Watercress Eating Championship saw last year’s winner Rajesh Peter crowned again over ten other competitors, taking 55.6 seconds to eat two bags of watercress – he failed to beat the record held by champion from two years ago Sam Batho.
