Could your Churchyard be the best in Devon this year?

We are delighted to be organising Devon’s Best Churchyard Competition once again and entries are now invited from all denominations into our 2021 competition. This is the 4th year of the competition, which has gone from strength to strength, and we are very much looking forward to this year’s competition – closing date for entries is 31st March 2021.

Devon has hundreds of beautiful churchyards and they’ve really come into their own during the challenging circumstances of 2020. Residents the length and breadth of Devon have appreciated their local churchyard like never before, so we want to really celebrate these special places in 2021 and celebrate the people who look after them – because they are all volunteers and they do a fantastic job.

All the information and entry forms are available on our website here https://www.cpredevon.org.uk/competitions/devons-best-churchyard-competition/

Who will be this year’s winner??

2020 – Winner – Northam

2019 – Winner – East Budleigh

2018 – Winner – South Tawton
