BANDS entertained the crowds at the Timeline Festival as part of Hyndburn's Millennium celebrations.

Energetic samba band Pulse played in the grounds of St James' Church, Accrington, along with the Fastest One Man Band in the World, singer Angie Palmer and many others.

Children enjoyed fairground rides, face painting, balloon modelling and craft stalls as well as a traditional Punch and Judy show by puppeteer Rob Falcon.

Organiser Julie Denwer, of Hyndburn Council, said: "The whole area was awash with colour and activity with live music wherever you turned."
