JUDGES looked bloomin’ impressed when wandering round Witney.
The town was being judged as part of the Britain in Bloom competition, which will name the best gardening town in September.
Regional judge Ben Stanesby said: “I would say Witney, as ever, was a great place to visit and made a very strong entry.
“There were lots of lovely little gems around the place and the efforts of everyone involved were very significant, not just the council but the volunteer groups too.”
