Our Christmas Float 'over the years'
First started in 1960 and still going strong!
Our first Christmas Float looked very different to the one we have today!
Created on the back of an articulated lorry, it was a sight to behold, but over the years
it has changed into what we now use.
As much as we would love to use the original, our small streets just wouldn't cope!
This is one of many vehicles used as a 'float' for Santa !
Our current Christmas Float which has been used for many years !
