24 pictures of Mansfield and Ashfield residents celebrating Easter

As Easter is a little different this year due to the pandemic, we thought we’d take a trip back in time to look at how Mansfield and Ashfield celebrated it in the noughties.

From Easter bonnet parades to egg collections and themed parties, everyone in our latest photo gallery appears to be having an ‘eggs-celent’ time.

Have a look through and see who you can spot.
