Dazzling displays for ‘Light Up Louth’ competition

This special event recognises the time and effort that residents put into decorating their homes, which helps to spread the Christmas spirit around the community.

The town council’s Floral Working group, which is also responsible for the ‘Lovely Louth’ summer floral competition, introduced Light Up Louth last year as a new winter competition. However this year it has really taken off with people spending more time at home.

The entries were judged by the Mayor of Louth, Councillor Darren Hobson, and members of the Floral Enhancement Working Group.

Each of the three winners received gift vouchers and a bespoke bauble decoration.

This year, the judges were so impressed with the standard of the entrants, that a runner up was also awarded.

The winners were...

• First place: 6 Dales Close

• Second place: 6 Hawker Drive

• Third place: 18 Charles Avenue

• Runner up: 25 Keddington Crescent
