HUNDREDS of partygoers raised a glass and sang a song to celebrate St Patrick's Day in a sea of green in Hampshire.

Pubs, bars and clubs across the county were transformed as revellers spectacularly paid tribute to the patron saint of Ireland.

Celebrations were in full swing at Eastleigh and District Irish Society in Southampton Road where regulars sported green hats, shamrocks and leprechaun outfits and sipped Guinness.

The revellers – some who had travelled from as far afield as London - were entertained by traditional Irish dancers and a band.
