Town Mayor Dick Sweatman was out and about in the High Street at the weekend to witness the High Street Traders Christmas Big Reveal. Now an annual date not to be missed, shops in the High Street tease passers by with covered up shop windows until one by one the coverings are taken down and the Christmas displays are revealed.

This year there was even a splattering of snow to bring a proper seasonal atmosphere to the proceedings. As each window was revealed there were appropriate Oohhs and AAhhs from the crowd. Taking our photographs was Town Promotion Manager Dawn Spalding who was on hand to explain when a passing visitor from Lingfield was heard to ask ‘What is going on?’

So impressed was he that he vowed to bring his family to look at the windows this year and to look out for it next year. Check the results out for your self in the run up to Christmas.
