After the Christmas tree lights were switched on in Blackhall last night it was Hesleden's turn this evening to light up their own tree on the village green, and as usual the people of Hesleden did the village proud with another fantastic turnout.
To get things underway the parish council chair, Cllr Gaynor Crute, welcomed residents who despite the chilly December weather turned out in their numbers to get the festive season of to a great start.
A choir of children and young people from Stars Community CIC led the gathering in singing a selection of Christmas carols which was followed immediately afterwards by the traditional countdown to the tree lighting.
As ever, thanks go to the clerk, ground staff and members of Monk Hesleden Parish Council for organising the Christmas tree lighting ceremony and making sure everything was in order.
However a special thank you is reserved for the residents and children of Hesleden who came along this evening to get the festive season underway in great style!
