RHS/Ball Colegrave National Flower Bed Competition
Macclesfield Borough Council
Treacle Town
Macclesfield's flower bed tells the tale of a consignment of treacle which came to a sticky end around 100 years ago. Traffic mayhem and a free-for-all ensued for the lucky residents of Macclesfield when a wagon bearing barrels of treacle took a tumble and spilt its contents in the street. A welcome return for the local town that last entered the competition in 2001.
