Maldon's popular Promenade Park has carried home a winning title at Anglia in Bloom this year.

Judges descended in July to mark the town on gardening prowess and toured Promenade Park, Plume School, Friary Walled Garden and Market Hill Gardens.

Jennifer Eva, environment officer for Maldon Town Council, said: “Promenade Park won best open space, so big congratulations to all those involved with the park.

“Maldon got silver gilt in the town category for the 8th year running."
