The party is over – and the clean-up started early this morning.

Victorious festival concluded last night with a headline set from Sam Fender, and after three days of top-quality music – and other entertainment – the big tidy-up operation has started.

Teams worked through the night to make a start and this morning bin lorries were being loaded up with rubbish as dumpsters were emptied of their contents.
