Dozens of people gathered around tables of food and drink for a street party in Stamford.

The residents of Conduit Road had held a similar event for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee last year, and to mark the crowing of the King they were back out in force.

Having arranged a road closure and made quiches, cakes and other treats, they chatted over glasses of wine and Pimm’s.
