TV personality judges shop window competition

A television star was one of the judges of Tetbury Music Festival's best dressed window.

Interior designer, Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen, joined Tetbury Music Festival director, Caz Weller Knight, to judge the shop windows in Tetbury.

His Majesty King Charles III is the music festival's patron and lives nearby at Highgrove.

Pat Hodges of Skeins of Tetbury was crowned the overall winner.

The competition saw two dozen local shops compete to create the most beautiful and innovative shop window design, each reflecting an aspect of Tetbury Music Festival, which is taking place until October 6.

Silver went to Hobbs House Bakery and Bronze to Amy Perry Antiques, with many other shops also winning praise from the famous designer.

The competition celebrated the music on offer during the festival and raised welcome funds for St Mary's Primary School to enhance their music provision.

Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen said: "This really does go to show that we in the Cotswolds are an international force in the dark arts of visual merchandising. Roll over Bath, Bristol and even London, Tetbury shop windows blaze an incandescent trail."

The shop window displays will be available to view until Sunday (October 6) - the final day of Tetbury Music Festival.
