SIR – Well done, Councillor Rory Marshall! The lights on the trees on The Grove are just beautiful – such a simple idea and so well-executed.

One of the best improvements to Ilkley for years – and done without a lot of fuss and in time for the Ilkley Festival season. Let’s hope lots of visitors come to see them and stay (and spend) with us.

Tim and Judith Ratcliffe, Stubham Rise, Ilkley
