The joint winners of our 2025 Jesmond Gardens Competition were 2 Lily Avenue and 4 Lansdowne Gardens. Third place was 39 Osborne Road, while there were Special Mentions for 5 Hartside Gardens and Woodland Mews. The judges found it very difficult to come to their final conclusions and were keen to commend all the gardens which were entered for the competition!
St George’s Church tells us:

Last Saturday’s tour of Jesmond Old Cemetery made the most of the glorious weather. After the tour everyone stayed to chat in the sun, drinking tea and coffee, and enjoying home-baked scones and cakes. For more information about the Friends of Jesmond Old Cemetery email friendsofjoc@gmail.com .
