Wells Carnival 2012: Return to traditional route for Diamond Jubilee procession
Carnival will be rolling into the city tomorrow bringing the annual spectacular show to the people of Wells.
With more than 40 carts in the procession, this year promises to be as fantastic as ever.
In his programme notes carnival committee chairman Martin Coppell patriotically dedicated this year's event to the Queen, in honour of her diamond jubilee.
Returning to its traditional route this year the procession will start on Strawberry Way before moving on to Tucker Street, past the Little Theatre, up Chamberlain Street before turning on to Sadler Street and down High Street, Broad Street and finish at the end of Priory Road.

Ancient mythology is the theme for Gorgons CC.
To celebrate their 40th anniversary they are reprising the theme from their first carnival.
