Go and look at Abbeydale Park Rise off Abbeydale Road in Totley. The residents put on a great display every year and cover the trees outside their houses in fairy lights :)

 

Here's a photo I took a few years ago. It gives you an impression, but in reality it's far more magical.

That's quite classy, and some thought has gone into it, unlike my offerings that look like they've been shorn in some festive shell suit.

We used to go to Clowne. All of the houses on a crescent used to put on a great display of lights and all donations were given to charities in the area. The kids loved it, although we sometimes had trouble parking up. Dont know the name of the road, just that it was near a big church. Might pay another visit this week to see!

That looks great. It's really good when communities work together to create something nice. :)

You mean Northfields, it used to be really good until the druggies thought they could make a quick bit of cash from stealing the lights. I live the next village on from there.

Oh what a shame about northfields. The kids used to love going. Their eyes uesd to light up at the beautiful displays. You cant have nothing now, someone always spoils it. :(:(
