It was the second year of the festival, held in conjunction with Oswestry's Heritage Action Zone project.A photographic exhibition at The Qube encouraged photographers to submit pictures under the Love Oswestry theme and the Iron Age Hillfort on the edge of the town was also given some love, with volunteers giving up their time to cut down vegetation encroaching on the ramparts of the historic monument.
As darkness fell, scores of people gathered in Festival Square with lanterns they had made at Designs in Mind over previous weekends. At the front of the drummers leading the beats was Oswestry Mayor Councillor Jay Moore, who is himself a drum teacher.He said:"I have to say there’s never a dull day in my role! I joined the Love Oswestry music workshops for kids and ended the day leading a parade drumming. My arms definitely ached afterwards!"
