The Maidenhead Festival fun last weekend will have brought back memories for many of previous summertime celebrations in the town, including Maidenhead Carnivals.

In our archives we found these pictures of the Maidenhead Carnival and River Pageant, held on June 24, 1995.

Huge crowds lined the banks of the Thames to watch the action.
