A family has put up what they believe is Britain's oldest Christmas tree which at 97 has survived gale force winds and World War Two bombings. <br /><br />The 2ft tree has been passed down through a family's maternal line since it was first purchased by Elizabeth Naylor from Woolworths at Christmas in 1920. <br /><br />It was named William's tree because it was bought for her eldest son William's first Christmas - and, after his premature death aged 19 in 1940, the tree became a memorial to him.
