Day of Judgement
Wednesday 15 July was Sherborne’s judgement day when the Southwest In Bloom judges visited the town. We escorted Barry Cruse and Kim Parrish, the two judges, on tour around the town.
We started off from the Council Chamber and then embarked on a route which took in (we hope!) the highlights of the town.
We ended up in the Butterfly House at Castle Gardens after visiting the Paddock Garden, Cheap Street, the Station, the Pageant Gardens, the Police Station, the Abbey, Sherborne Primary School, the ‘tip’ and the Castle (and a few more places in between).
Now we wait for September, to find out how we did.
A lot of people did a lot of work to make the day go well. We were lucky and it didn’t rain and Barry Cruse was in a fairly good mood because that day was his birthday 
Thanks to everyone who helped. Now let’s look forward to the photo exhibition in the Cheap Street Church Hall, starting Tuesday 21 July. See you there!

Her Majesty the Queen visited Sherborne on her Diamond Jubilee tour. Click here to read all about it!
I hope the Judges visited The White Hart In Sherborne as this pubs flowers & Barskets look supperb, I know the bar man grows all the flowers him self from seed, he looks after them like they are his little babbies. I hope all his efforts are rewarded in some way.
Thanks for your comment Steven. Yes, we took the judges to see the White Hart and they were duly impressed! Congratulations to the bar man for such a tremendous display which will surely earn Sherborne a few brownie points when it comes to the results. Thank you!
