The show attracted more than 200 exhibits in these classes…

After judging, exhibitors and the public were invited to view the exhibits and the winning entries in each section.

The invited judges for each class examined every entry in each category and awarded first, second and third places.

Meanwhile, the exhibitors waited patiently for the judges decisions on their hard work this growing season.

Presentation of trophies to the winning exhibitors was done by Blackpool’s greatest boxer and former British and Commonwealth Heavyweight champion, Brian London. Seen here with David’s Slack Allotment chairman, Terry Harrison
