The events started on Saturday with a morning of coffee, cakes and stalls, followed by a musical performance of Graham Kendrick’s The Gift in the evening.

On Sunday the traditional morning service was followed by an afternoon of music courtesy of the North Lincs Fiddle Club while people looked around the array of Christmas trees.

Then to round off the weekend people enjoyed singing some of their favourite Christmas carols surrounded by the Christmas trees.
