28/10: Green Corners Award for Islington Gardeners' Forgotten Corners
Islington Gardeners' Forgotten Corners team are thrilled to have received a Special Award from the Conservation Foundation's Green Corners competition, and individual Green Corners Awards for each of our Forgotten Corners. Our FCs can be seen from the pavement by visiting Corsica Street , N5, St Paul's Road, N1, (the Alwyne Castle Strip between the Alwyne Castle pub and the bus stop), Pyrland Road Border, N5, the Rosemary Green, outside the Rosemary Branch Pub, Baring Street, N1, the Campdale Road Hedge, N7, Boxworth Grove, N1, and the Whitehall Park Garden, Pauntley Street, N19. Other Islington winners were the Ockendon Road Tree Gardens, N1, and King Henry's Walk Gardens, N1.
The Conservation Foundation had a total of 50 prizewinners from all corners of London, all contributing to making the capital a brighter, greener and healthier place to live. Naturalist David Bellamy signed the certificates wearing his honey bee t-shirt, to emphasise the contribution the Green Corners make to London's biodiversity.
