CHRISTMAS displays by traders in Newport were judged an outstanding success.
Glorious festive scenes greeted the Mayor of Newport, Councillor Ron Morris, pictured, and Eve Williams, president of the Newport Chamber of Trade, as they recently toured the town's market stalls and shops judging the Christmas Decorating Competition.
The winner of the market section was Exclusive Jewellery, with fruit and veg wholesaler Harry Wheeler being highly commended.
Winners of the shops section were due to be announced later today.
Mrs Williams said: "The standard was very high and it was very difficult to choose a winner. We sat in the Mansion House for an hour deciding who would win."
