After a mini break due to the pandemic, the world-famous folk rock festival - Fairport's Cropredy Convention - has returned.
Fairport opened with their acoustic set and the Trevor Horn band headlined. Toyah Willcox and Robert Fripp joined him for one song mid-set.
We will be covering the festival over the three days (August 11-13) - here are the photos from the first day (Thursday August 11), taken by David Jackson.
