A Merseyside town that once found itself with the "UK's worst tree" ended up holding Christmas in spring.
Back in 2014, residents in Liscard, Wirral, set up a Facebook page bemoaning the area's poor festive display. A sad sight, many will remember photos of the Christmas tree went viral, being crowned one of the worst in the UK that year.
At the time, a post on the group, called Liscard Christmas Lights, said: "We know we are not Liverpool or Birkenhead, but as a community and customers of all the local shops in Liscard all year round we deserve better from Wirral council and the businesses." The post was accompanied by a photograph of a very unimpressive tree that had been imprisoned behind a large metal gate.
