Silloth Presentation to Cumbria in Bloom AGM 17 Nov 2014Anna Malina
This presentation highlights Silloth-on-Solway as an attractive Cumbrian tourist destination. With a new dock and railway established in the 1860s, Silloth was developed as a planned Victorian spa town. At 45 acres, the town's village green, which sits between the main cobbled street and the Solway Firth, is the largest and, arguably most beautiful, in England. Many annual events on the Green are organised by local people. The Green's Community Garden sits on the corner of Criffel St and Lawn Tce. Local people participated in the design of the garden which was opened in May 2014. Silloth is winner of the Cumbria in Bloom Coastal Town award and the Green is a recipient of a Green Flag award.
