Illuminated drummers sparked off a stunning firelight display on land and water at a Cumbrian beauty spot.

The Ullswater Droving, a new one-off event, saw street performers Spark lead a community procession of hundreds of torch bearers.

Earlier the drummers had sailed up Ullswater to Pooley Bridge onboard the Western Belle steamer.

This celebration, featuring ‘masks and magic’ was organised for the people of Glenridding, Pooley Bridge, and surrounding areas by Eden council and Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership.
