A World War II themed community fun day was held at Brownlow House, Lurgan, on Saturday.

Presented by Regenerate, the popular event included tours of Brownlow House, a WWII tented village, stalls and vehicle displays, re-enactors, songs by the Swingtime Starlets, and a spectacular finale in the form of a full wartime battle re-enactment with special effects.

Photographer Tony Hendron went along to capture a flavour of the event.
