The county's most famous knights are set to descend on Sussex as the popular Loxwood Joust makes its grand return today (Saturday August 5).

Loxwood Meadow will be transformed into a battle arena and a living history village as medieval mayhem returns in a weekend packed full of fun family activities.

Visitors will be entertained by full-contact jousting, along with other daring displays of weaponry, archery and cannon fire.

There will also be a chance to meet larger-than-life characters and wander the history village to learn more about medieval life.

For youngsters there will be a chance to enjoy their own mini festival in the Children’s Kingdom. Activities include archery, face and wound painting, pelt the peasant, sword school and a bouncy castle.

There will also be plenty of food on offer.
