YE OLDE days of yore were revived on Saturday when the Rivington Festival burst into action.
The event, at Rivington Hall Barn, was the Rivington Millennium Festival which attracted huge crowds.
The fun included a typical Saxon meal, a performance by the Houghton English Country Dance Band, and plenty of Medieval entertainment -- in the form of jesters, jugglers and the Knights of Longshanks.
The knights came armed with a full Medieval campsite and traditional weapons and performed some dramatic combat scenes.
Visitors got a chance to examine the historic items on display and youngsters even had a go at archery.
