An army of scarecrows have taken over a street in Carlton to spread some much-needed cheer while the UK lockdown continues.
Householders have produced a number of imaginative creations that now line Orlando Drive and are putting smiles on the faces of passers-by.
NHS key workers join other superheroes like Spider-Man and Superman in the line up and carry the warning to stay safe and stay home.









Lisa Matthews, 44, from Netherfield, said the scarecrows have helped lift her mood on the way to work each day.
She said: “They always make me smile. Things are a bit tough at the moment so it’s great when people do something to lift the spirits. It’s what us Brits are renowned for.”

This might appear harmless but is in reality not helping NHS workers such as myself and is putting us in further danger. Orlando Drive is now a destination and people are not social distancing. On a weekend there can be 20 extra people walking up the road. Residents cannot go out safely & the organisers are even nipping into each other’s gardens & chatting for hours. I’m glad I risk myself so they can socialise.
