Members of the Church in Abingdon were singing carols in the Market Place today. They set up banners, including one of the stable scene in the Nativity Story. There was a craft table and face painting.

The Town Crier announced each of the carols. A keyboard player and violinist accompanied the singing.

Singing was led by Sally Mears.

There were even several dogs who joined in with the occasional bark.

Afterwards the Street Pastors offered hot pasties and mulled juice.

Above is a recording of just one of the many carols: Oh Little Town of Bethlehem with Sally Mears adding a Descant on the last verse.
