Caption / Description:

Panorama at night by the Christmas tree in Market Harborough town square, Leicestershire, England. The image was taken on 5th January 2012.

The tree is sponsored by Market Harborough Building society (whose offices can be seen nearby), and was the centrepiece of the Christmas Lights switch-on event, which took place on 25th November 2011.

Behind the tree can be seen the War memorial, while further back the spire of St. Dionysius Church rises above the surrounding shops. As well as the Harborough building society, other nearby businesses that can be seen include Tesco, Cafe Nero, Halifax, and New Look.
