The bonfire in the South Lanarkshire town of Biggar is lit every Hogmanay at 9.30pm in the High Street.
At the start of the night, the festivities begin with a torchlight parade with pipers and drummers. Then the much anticipated bonfire begins, a tradition which is goes back many generations and even continued throughout WW2 when a candle in a tin replaced the bonfire as blackouts were in place.
