The Queen of Hearts scarecrow, Beech Avenue, Flamborough
New take on the old nursery rhyme as knave makes off with tarts on a mobility scooter.

The Queen of Hearts she made some tarts all on a summer's day;
The Knave of Hearts he stole the tarts and took them clean away.
The King of Hearts called for the tarts and beat the Knave full sore
The Knave of Hearts brought back the tarts and
vowed he'd steal no more.
Flamborough Scarecrow Festival 2014

Every August the village of Flamborough hosts its annual Scarecrow Festival. The event lasts for a week during which residents and visitors alike can follow a trail of scarecrows through the village. The theme for this year is nursery rhymes.
The festival is to raise money for the Flamborough RNLI and is always well supported.
A map and list of entrants is available from venues around the village and delicious refreshments are available from the Flamborough Women's Institute Hall (chocolate cake to die for).
