Local photographer and community journalist, Jonathan White, offers his favourite Christmas light displays in Crewe and Nantwich for 2022.

I enjoy the Christmas lights in the Crewe and Nantwich town centres, but I also really enjoy the over-the-top Christmas lights and decorations.

This includes the occasional inflatable decoration and light show - that some local residents setup each year.

My favourite Christmas houses in Crewe this year are: Alton Street, Broad Street, Carlisle Street, Dane Bank Avenue, Dunham Crescent and Jesmond Crescent.

Not forgetting: Kemble Close, Manor Way, Melford Close, Merlin Way, Merrivale Road, Salisbury Avenue, and Underwood Lane.

Congratulations to Crewe Town Council for the Christmas trees and lights in the town centre.

My favourites in Wistaston are in Abbey Fields, Milton Drive, Rope Bank Avenue, Shelley Drive, Westfield Drive (say hello to the gnomes!) and the Wistaston Brook (formerly Witters Field) estate.

My favourites in Shavington are in Burlea Drive and the Shavington Advent Window Trail around the village.

My most favourite Christmas houses in Nantwich this year are in Barony Road, Cope Avenue, Hawksey Drive, Volunteer Fields, Kingsbourne (Ayrshire Drive, Hereford Place, Stratton Road) and Richmond Village Nantwich.

There are also excellent lights in the town centre courtesy of Nantwich Town Council.

I would like to give a special mention to two charity Christmas houses:

Allyn Nightingale on Rope Bank Avenue, Wistaston, is raising money for Children with Cancer UK (Jonathan White).
