CONGRATULATIONS to Abingdon Abbey Gardens on being given a Green Flag Award.
A record of 1,582 parks were recognised in total and the accolade rewards the best green spaces around the country.
Abingdon has the privilege of seasonal floral displays throughout the year, so I feel praise must go to the Abingdon Town Council gardeners who maintain all the gloriously colourful hanging baskets, flower beds and planters in and around our streets and roads, making it so welcoming to the residents of Abingdon as well as the many visitors who frequent our historic town.
