James Creighton, who lives in Grove Road, Stevenage, has used around 10,000 bulbs for his festive display.

The 25-year-old is raising money for Cancer Research UK – to donate visit www.justgiving.com/xmas2013

Other houses lit up in Stevenage include John Daniels’ display in Woolners Way and Freda Marsh’s effort in Leaves Spring.

In Hitchin, a house in Meadowbank has gone all out, while Keith Reynolds’ display in Church Road, Willian, also caught our photographer’s eye.
