  • The Photography Competition, sponsored by the Parish Council, and held in conjunction with the Buckden Festival was a great success. We had well over one hundred entries, of a very high standard, which certainly caused the judge a headache. It’s obvious that we have some very talented photographers in the village. The photos were displayed in the Aragon Room of the Village Hall during the Festival and many people came along in the course of the afternoon to admire them.

Winners of each theme in each age group received £10, and the overall winner of each age group wins the Parish Council shield.
