A couple whose giant Christmas tree has become an annual festive landmark will keep the tradition going "as long as we can".
The tree was planted by Avril and Chris Rowlands at their home in Inkberrow, near Worcester, in 1978.
After 45 years, it stands at just over 50ft (15m) tall and needs more than 1,000 lights to decorate it.
They raised more than £1,000 for a local charity via well-wishers this year, and plan "more of the same".
