Festive photos of Accrington, history in the making!
Tis that time of year again. Already some of the shops have got "into the spirit of things".
This butchers stall in Accrington Market is a credit to him. Must have taken him hours to prepare the stall. Nice one!
Slighty blurred for some reason, will take another next time in town

Festive photos of Accrington, history in the making!
Here is a clearer photo of the butchers market stall.
Hadnt realised I had taken a "blurry" photo until I had put it up on the site. Sorry. This was taken this morning.

Presumed controversial ? Or not enough money available for such blatant frivolities ?
