Front Garden Competition - The Results
FRONT GARDEN COMPETITION
The judges had a mammoth task deciding on the winners as so many residents concentrated on their green spaces during lockdown with local garden centres having record breaking sales of plants and compost when they re-opened. There was a category for everyone – Best Garden Overall, Best Container Garden and Best Lawn on Lowry Hill.
We would like to thank Northern Gas for generously donating the prizes and also our judges Sue and Jean for their time and expertise which was much appreciated.
Many of the gardens around the estate are spectacular and we recommend that you take a walk and view them for yourself.
And the lockdown winners are ……

Santa came to Lowry Hill on Christmas Eve!! He started at 4.30pm at the entrance to Naworth Drive and drove round Lowry Hill Road entertaining literally hundreds of children, his elves collecting donations for local charities as he went. Thanks are due to The Rotary Club of Carlisle for organising this event.

Lowry Hill Plant Swap - 26th May 2024 All residents were encouraged to grow and pot flowers, shrubs and vegetables and bring them to "The Owl" an open space behind the Kingmoor Infants' School on Sunday 26th May. On the day the organisers were pleasantly surprised with the number of plants brought along by residents. At the end of the day people were encouraged to take plants even though they had not brought any to exchange. Such was the success that it is expected that the event will be repeated in 2025.
