CHRISTMAS shoppers will be able to visit a special Nativity scene set up at Crompton Place shopping centre in Bolton.
The Town Centre Chaplaincy asked centre manager, Mark Rycraft to find a spot for the crib, made by Victoria Hall Mission member, Elaine Cambray.
And it has been delighting passers-by and centre staff.
Mr Rycraft, who has been dubbed the 21st Century Inn Keeper, said: "We are delighted to give a home to Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus and their animals. We hope that our shoppers will take time to come and have a look at this fantastic Nativity scene."
The display was originally upstairs near TK Maxx, but is now by BBs Cafe.
Bolton Town Centre Chaplain, Philip Brooks was delighted to have found "room at the inn" in the heart of the retail centre.
He said: "It's great to provide this reminder for Boltons shoppers of the important story behind the festive season."
