Nautical flags and bunting have been draped across the historic streets of Johnshaven to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee.

Nearly 200 villagers packed Mid Street for coronation chicken sandwiches, strawberry jam and plenty of ice cream.

The street party continued celebrations in the Aberdeenshire community after a beacon was lit at the harbour last night.

Party-goers have been enjoying some live music, while youngsters decorated their own paper crowns.

Many made an appearance in the fancy dress parade that also featured jubilee caterpillars and bowler hats.

Jubilee celebrations are continuing in Johnshaven with activities in the park on Saturday and heritage tours on Sunday.
