The South Somerset Federation Carnivals season started on Saturday (28 Sep) with Wellington Carnival. Starting at 7.30pm from Rockwell Green the annual illuminated procession began winding its way through the town. The carnival route is just under two miles long and ended at Priory near King’s Church. Apple FM were proud to be part of the line-up once again despite the bad weather, which actually relented for the procession.
