A visit to Castleton (continued)


Here is the walk around winding, narrow streets of Castleton, Derbyshire that I haven't had a chance to share.  The place always looks very festive for the Christmas season especially as real Christmas trees are outside most of the shops, homes and other buildings.  In the past we've gone there with visiting family to enjoy the atmosphere when the Christmas lights are on.

 I was able to take pictures of the model Christmas scene display in one shop window.





Castleton is a good place to buy Christmas ornaments and gifts. I bought the Nativity figures one year.
