The VE Day Competition in Hedon to find the “Best Dressed House” attracted fifty entries. Altogether over 180 photographs were sent to Hedon Town Council and judged by the Mayor Councillor Colin Billany who commented: “It was a difficult decision as there were plenty of good ones!”
The winning entries were:
- 1st place – Billie-Jo & James Taylor of Charles Street who decorated both front and back ways with flags and poppy bunting.
- 2nd place – Pam Mckinley of Colemans Road was second with a poppy bush and inflatable RAF aeroplane in the garden.
- 3rd place – Andy Hampel of Church Lane was third whose display also included a RAF Battle of Britain aeroplane attached to the wall.
