Pictures from 2010 show the scene as our county was hit by heavy snow.

People young and old dug out their sledges and made snowballs as they made the most of the wintery weather in Crawley, Mid Sussex and Horsham.

The county was hit by two snowfalls in December, one at the start and one midway through shortly before Christmas.

Take a trip down memory lane with these pictures from 2010.
