THERE was plenty of family fun at the Staverton Fayre despite a weekend of rain.

Visitors enjoyed everything from classic cars to craft stalls and games at the one-day annual event.

Organisers said it was wet but the rain held off long enough for the event not to be a wash out.

Many visitors travelled to the Staverton Elizabethan Fayre in style by steam train before completing the short walk to the village green where the fayre was being held.
