VISITORS to the Millennium Green May Fair in Bridport yesterday didn't let an overcast sky and the threat of rain dampen their spirits.

The friends of the green put on lavish entertainment to promote the open space which included a sumptuous barbecue and cream teas, Maypole dancing, dog obedience, Morris dancing, a pottery demonstration, St Swithun's Band, side shows, stalls and - last but not least - the crowning of May Queen Matilda Boulay by the Deputy Lieutenant for Dorset Mrs Pamela Seaton.
