A village supermarket threw a special party to celebrate its 10th birthday.

Tesco in Little Lever treated customers as a way of saying thank you for their support throughout the past decade after it closed the Tesco Metro store to make for the health centre and library and relocated to Crossley Street.

Bolton FM entertained customers throughout the day and the Warburtons van drove into the car park to hand out hot crumpets, topped with everything from butter to Nutella.

The Bury pudding store set out its stall to offer samples with children enjoying Candy King sweet cones.
