CREDITON has some lovely floral displays and thanks to many groups, individuals and organisations, usually fares well in Britain in Bloom judging each year.

South West Britain in Bloom judges, Rod Pooley from Bristol and John Yeo from Kingskerswell recently visited Crediton, their tour hosted by Crediton Town Council.

The tour included Crediton Parish Church, Station Tea Rooms, People’s Park Wildlife Area, St Lawrence Green, the War Memorial, Newcombes Meadow and Crediton Town Square.

“We await the results in October.”
