On Monday, Natalie Bainbridge, chair of Oswestry In Bloom, welcomed a full house to The Memorial Hall for the annual award presentation.
There were over 100 individual awards in 15 categories, with almost 80 being presented on the night. There were also special awards for individuals and groups.
The categories ranged from Best Hanging Basket to Best Large Back Garden. Local community groups and young people were also recognised.
Oswestry In Bloom is run by a committee of volunteers and supported by Oswestry Town Council. For the first time, this year each category was sponsored by a local business, and a representative from each was invited to present the certificates and trophies.
