Twenty-eight shops and businesses got together for the Devonshire Road Street party last weekend. Despite the inclement weathe,r locals turned out in force to enjoy a day of events, special offers and entertainment. Local photographers have been out and about snapping the action as the community got involved in the fun.

A cook-off from local restaurants, a ‘stilletto’ race and a chance to soak an estate agent were just some of the events on the day. Everyone got into the party spirit, there was lots of fun and new friends were made.

The day was organised by local traders who wanted the local community to have some fun but also as a reminder to shop local and keep jobs in Chiswick.

The road was transformed with grass donated by Lazy Lawn, and filled with games, events and activities, including a Hog Roast, Live Music, Kid's Crafts, Street Theatre, Face Painting, Fancy dress and more!
