March wonky Christmas tree 'like leaning tower of Pisa'
By John Devine and Helen BurchellBBC News, Cambridgeshire
A " wonky" Christmas tree erected in a town has been causing a stir among residents.
The Tree , which is about 30ft (9m) high, has a pronounced lean at The Top and sits on Market Place , in the Cambridgeshire town of March .
Resident Kimberly Williams said: " The Italians have got the leaning tower of Pisa - March has now got the Leaning Tree of Christmas. "
Volunteers who erected The Tree said it was like that when they got it.
Dozens of people commented when a photograph of the wonky tree was posted on a local Facebook group.
Some called it " embarrassing" while others praised The Work of volunteers from The March Christmas Lights Committee who are responsible for erecting The Tree and decorating it.
Ms Williams, 50, said: " It's better than Last Year , but it's a bit wonky isn't it? It's a bit on The Lean . "
But, she added she was grateful that The Town did actually have a real tree.
" I think we should be proud of it" She Said , agreeing its imperfections could become the unique selling point for the Fenland town.
Robert Moat, 64, who lives in March , told BBC Radio Cambridgeshire: " I've been here Four Years and The Tree 's been wonky every year, but at least they make the effort to put something up. "
David Williams , 51, said he had some concerns about whether The Tree was Safe - because it was leaning.
" It's a bit of a disappointment to the community, " He Said .
" There's no symmetry to it at all, but we love coming down with The Kids to see the lights turned on, so we're just hoping the lights are going to do the trick. "
Anne Conroy, 88, agreed, and said she would not personally like to be The Fairy trying to balance on The Top of this particular tree.
" It's certainly leaning, it's dangerous, " She Said .
Replying to criticism on Social Media , the lights committee wrote that members had ordered The Tree almost a year ago and it was " down to the supplier/luck as to what overall size/condition of tree we receive in the end".
" We will pass the feedback we received regarding The Tree not being straight to the supplier in the hopes that next year's tree is a better one, " they added.
The Bbc has asked March Town Council for a comment.
