Small Worcestershire village, huge Christmas tree!

Available for over a year

Meet the owners behind Inkberrow's world famous 50ft Christmas tree. Avril and Chris Rowlands bought the tree when they moved in to the village in the 1970s, and it has grown ever since! The village is famed for being the inspiration for The Archers, but now has at least one extra reason to bring in visitors. Hear the couple tell our reporter Tom Edwards how it takes more than half a day to decorate using a cherry picker. The couple are raising money for the 'Caring Hands in the Vale' charity, which helps people who are homeless or on low incomes. Image credit: Avril and Chris Rowlands
