HUNDREDS of women and girls lined the streets of Neston last week to take part in the 209th Ladies Club Day.

The procession, hosted by Neston Female Society, is held every year on the first Thursday in June.

This year, on Thursday, June 1, the walk through the town started at the Malt Shovel pub car park at 2.30pm.

Ladies and girls aged five and up were led by the Pipe Band from the Scots Guards Association.

After, there was a service in the Parish Church, and the procession moved to the Neston Cross, finishing at the British Legion, where members had tea.

Local leaders such as MP for Ellesmere Port and Neston, Justin Madders, Leader of Cheshire West and Chester Council, Louise Gittins and newly appointed Mayor of Neston, Cllr Steve Wastell, came to the annual event.

Here are 15 photos from the event, sent in by Globe readers.
