The people of St Maurice pulled together in a great effort to make the village look beautiful for the Britain in Bloom contest held over the summer of 2010. From hanging baskets to bunting being put up many people paid a vital role in St Maurice winning the following accolades:
In Britain in Bloom the Royal Horticultural Society awarded the Plympton St Maurice Conservation area a Neighbourhood Award of “Outstanding”, the highest category. We were even featured in the R.H.S. magazine! The national judges described their visit here as a highlight. They recognised a community effort where so many have local pride.
In Plymouth in bloom, Pathfields gained a Silver Award as a community Environmental Project, and Fore Street also won a Silver award in the Best Street category. |
