Flagging up parks
Get on down to the park. More of them are better than ever before. That’s according to the Green Flag Award scheme, which has had to acquire more flagpoles for the rise in ensigns it’s been giving out.
But before you get cynical and compare the standard or parks to the standard of A-leves, take a walk around them, they really are rather good, with trails, information, sculptures and events.
Here’s a list of the winners within our South Devon aegis.
