St George's Day Celebrations in Pinner took place on Sunday 28th Aril 28th in Pinner High Street. It is organised by Pinner Rotary Club and the High Street was filled with entertainment for everyone with performers, stalls and activities. There is ls also a grand parade of Scouts, Girl Guides, Beavers, Cubs and Rainbows who renew their promises in the presence of the Mayor of Harrow.. |

The highlight of the celebrations is always Ye Olde Wheelbarrow Race, a unique Pinner event in which teams of two take it in turns to push their partner in a wheelbarrow, drink beer and race round the streets of Pinner. This starts at Little Common (just past the Police Station) and ends at Church Farm Green (opposite the Parish Church). Pictured are the winning tean racing on behalf of The Queens Head with Sean the landlord of the popular award winning High St Pub. |

There was more than one English Country Group with music and dance who were popular with the crowds |

Really popular were the animals that young people could feed and pet |

Many thanks to Pinner Rotary Club who organised the event and also provided the stewards, three of whom are in the picture |
