Christmas Tree Festival

It doesn't seem five minutes since I was doing this last year! The Christmas Tree Festival hosted by the church in the village down the road. Local groups, shops and individuals enter their trees. Join me as we enjoy more lovely trees.

The Chequers, my village tree. The squares have images on them of paint tins, paper strippers, hammers and plastering. The tree is a tribute to everyone who has contributed to refurbishing the pub. Volunteers have scraped, filled, painted, built, upcycled and scrubbed to bring the Chequers back to life.
