BOYNTON went quackers at the weekend for the village's annual duck race.
Hundreds of plastic yellow ducks were tipped into the Gypsey Race on Sunday afternoon and crowds turned out in force to watch and cheer them on.

They went under starter's orders at the Stick Bridge and wound their way downstream, over a waterfall, past Boynton Hall and on to the finish line.

All the proceeds from the event will go towards the upkeep of the village hall.
