Scarecrow Trail Results

Published: 08 June 2022

There were 48 scarecrows. The winning entry correctly identified 47 and three people identified 46 so we awarded one 1st prize, 3 x 2nd prizes and no 3rd prize for the entries. Over 50 people entered the competition. 18 identified 45 or more correctly so the judging to decide the winners had to be ruthless.

Everyone struggled with Cora – “The Queen from salvaged material” and many with Charles I. I think his head should have been under his arm!

Best Scarecrow went to number 36, King Louie from the Jungle Book. 2nd prize went to number 5, the Queen and the Corgies and 3rd prize went to Simba from The Lion King outside Westwood Vets.
