A CHAINSAW sculptor put on a show of a different kind for Easter at a Darlington church.

Tree trunks were carved into Easter shapes, including a variety of crosses at Elm Ridge Methodist Church on Saturday, and children and adults took part in the sculpture session.

The workshop was organised by tree surgeon Paul Lucas.

Philip Clark, of Elm Ridge Methodist Church, and who helped to organise the day, said: "It was quite an unusual thing to host, but something we were delighted to be involved with."
