People have dressed as characters in an LS Lowry painting to recreate a scene he captured in 1938.

The artist was a frequent visitor to Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, where an exhibition of his work is being held at the Granary Gallery until October.

One of his paintings is of Bridge Street, which has changed very little over the last eight decades.

The recreation was the idea of Jonathan Macfarlane, who has a business there. He said: “Everyone had a great time and it was just an amazing community event.”
