Following the recent bad weather, namely six inches of snow, the annual hill sliding competition has been postponed.
The event that traditionally takes place on the Queen’s Mound, to the west of the Harold, sees some of the bravest villagers compete to get down the hill in the quickest possible time on plastic trays.
However the sheer amount of snow has seen organisers decide there was too much on the hill preventing the sleigh-type vehicles from sliding to the finish.
The event will be rescheduled for August when the Queen’s Mound should be completely dry with a slightly cracked surface.
