WELSHPOOL was taken back in time almost a century on the weekend.

The popular 1940s weekend saw hundreds of people from across the country descend on Welshpool town centre.

Music and vehicles from the era filled the streets and hundreds of people seized the chance to dress in clothing from the World War Two era.

The event also provided a boost to town eateries, pubs and shops who all took part in the celebration of yesteryear.
