Ledbury Carnival 1999 : Caribbean Carnival
Carnival Float (Outside MSF)
Ledbury Carnival 1999 took place on Monday 30 August 1999. The 1999 event was the 25th anniversary year. It was a bit of a challenge for me. I was at 3 locations during the carnival procession. I was outside MSF Roundabout at 12:15pm, The High Street at 12:55pm and Ledbury Primary School at about 13:20pm. I also had a camcorder with me. On this and the following few pages, are a collection of photos and camcorder images of the Event. For the first time, the carnival route went through the Deer Park Housing estate, due to a turning restriction at New Street/High Street. Thanks to the hot sunny weather, there was about 8,000 visitors!
