This year's Bishopthorpe Christmas tree is better than ever thanks to local efforts.
The tree was donated by the family of local resident Elsie McTurk who died last year aged 89. It was felled in her garden and handed over to Jenny Harris. A new stand has been bought, and once again Richard Williams has set up the new electrical installation using the supply laid on for the Sensory Garden.
With more lights - funded by the Parish Council, the very green and locally sourced tree looks splendid.
