Shop Window Competition

A record number of Emsworth shops and businesses used their windows to reflect Emsworth’s St George’s Day celebrations.

Over twenty shops took part in a window dressing competition organised by the Emsworth Business Association.

The entry fees are being donated to the town’s memorial garden which was set up recently to commemorate Emsworth men and women that gave their lives in action.

Judged by local artist Pippa Blake, there were three winners of the competition.

First place went to Treagust Butchers, with the bottle of champagne and certificate being presented to Richard and Ben Treagust (photo 1 below).

Heidi’s Swiss Patisserie in the Square came second

Emsworth Antiques Etc in West Street came third.

Commenting on the window displays Pippa said

It was really difficult to decide which displays should receive the awards – they were all so good.
