FESTIVE FUN:

Staff at a National Trust attraction are getting ready for an influx of visitors to its ‘festive nights’. Biddulph Grange Garden has installed Father Christmas’s sleigh, above, as they prepare to welcome people to take part in the illuminated walk. Head gardener Paul Walton said last year’s initial series of walks had proved so popular they had decided to run them again. For more information or to book visit nationaltrust.org.uk
