Story: Gaynor Carr
For the second year running Devon Gardens, the Victorian nannies’ park on Abbeyfield Road in Pitsmoor, has been awarded a prestigious Green Pennant Award, part of the Green Flag scheme which recognises great green spaces and the work done by the community to maintain and develop them.
The award ceremony, attended by over 100 people from parks across the city, took place on 14th September in the newly-opened JG Graves Woodland Discovery Centre in Ecclesall Woods.
Receiving the pennant on behalf of the Friends of Devon Gardens group were Steve and Gaynor Carr, with our new Parks partner David Rice (right), Area Officer for Sheffield North East.
