As Midnight Mass gets underway in the Cathedral, here are images of this year's crib. The figure of the baby Jesus was placed in the manger at the start of Vespers a few hours ago, and the crib was then blessed.
As with recent years, the crib has been set in the baptistery, which provides a wonderful archway at the front of the scene.
From everyone at Lancaster Cathedral, a very happy Christmas to all blog readers, wherever you are in the world. May this holy season be a time of grace for all of us.
