Cornbury Festival graced by royalty

Prince Harry checks out the entertainment

Prince Harry was one of the VIP guests at this weekend’s sold-out Cornbury Festival, held near Charlbury in Oxfordshire.

The two-day event attracted the red-headed Royal nipper on Saturday where he saw performances by ex-Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant and hoedown rock monsters Hayseed Dixie.

The Waterboys failed to show, held up by flight congestion on their way from a European date.

Sunday (July 9) saw celebrity motoring pundit Jeremy Clarkson and ‘EastEnders’ hero Ross Kemp on site to check out greatest hits sets from The Pretenders and Texas.
