Owen Scott claimed to have built the largest snowman in Aycliffe a few years ago and has been waiting for snow ever since, so he could go bigger. The previous effort was 12ft high so this year he and his children Brooke and Lincoln built a 14ft Snowman.

He sent this photo in to the Newton News last week.

Did you have a bigger one – if so send your photo to syd@newtonnews.co.uk
