A SMALL MATTER OF THE BRIGG TOWN CENTRE CHRISTMAS TREE


The 2014 Christmas tree with the Buttercross as a backdrop.
There's been some adverse comment about the size of the Christmas tree in Brigg Market Place this year. It even became the topic of discussion at a Brigg Town Council committee meeting.
Brigg Blog wonders whether word may be passed on about having a slightly larger tree for the town centre in 2014. 
The current tree may be smaller than some that have graced the Market Place but it's a very welcome sight. Many towns and villages in the UK have long since given up having a tree. It's good that Brigg is keeping up the old tradition. 
We've dipped into our archives to find some pix taken in previous years, by way of comparison

......it could be a question of a smaller tree....or that the hole they put it in has got deeper!
