Real Christmas trees from Louth and the West Midlands will soon be Grimsby's star attractions

                                                              

What a beauty! The 23ft high Nordmann Fir that will soon stand proud in Grimsby's St James' Square  

WITH the dark nights drawing in and temperatures dropping, North East Lincolnshire Council officials have selected their festive trees for Christmas 2024.

One will be a 23ft high Nordmann Fir that has been grown by Strawson Woodland at Little Cawthorpe, near Louth.

It is being paid for  by a generous donation from Newlincs Development Ltd, NELC's  waste management contractor. 

Meanwhile, here will be an even taller tree -  40ft -  to mark the first Christmas at the new-look Riverhead Square.

This will be a Norway Spruce, grown in the West Midlands and  selected from Real Christmas Trees in Birmingham.

A smaller tree - of about 12ft - will be installed at Grimsby Community Recycling Centre. This has also been handpicked from Strawsons.

More details about the festive switch-on ceremonies are due to be announced later.
