Coming home from Swanage this evening we had a stop off in Corfe Castle to see the Christmas lights. This is the second year that the Castle has been lit for Christmas and it looks great, but unfortunately it's not great to take photos of with a compact camera (without a tripod), but we tried anyway. We couldn't park in the Square so we parked in the large public car park overlooking the cemetery and Castle. There are many lovely old cottages in the village and they look extra special at this time of year decorated for Christmas. Even the post box has been given s snowy top and fairy lights!
Corfe Castle looking quite eerie.
The nativity scene in the square - our children, when they were young used to call them the scary people - we always had to stop off to see them though!
The church looked inviting. Last year when we came looking at the lights it was an absolutely freezing cold night with a heavy frost early on, this year however the temperature is almost tropical!
The Bankes Arms.
The Square.
Despite the drizzle, we weren't the only ones wandering about taking photos, the lights are really quite special especially for a small village.
