'Longleat at 60' and 'chocolate factory'

This week Longleat celebrated 60 years since launching as a "world-first" and resident doctors went on strike in a dispute over pay and jobs.

Elsewhere, a production of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory opened and walkers captured pictures of a stunning sunrise on the hottest day of the year so far.

Here is our weekly roundup of photographs from across the West of England.
