Battle of Naseby
The first residents' association to take on the battle of the flower beds, this small group from Manchester have chosen to recreate a scene from the Battle of Naseby which took place during the English Civil War. Their avenue was named after a battle at Naseby Ridge between Prince Rupert and Sir Thomas Fairfax, which resulted in Rupert's larger army losing out to a better disciplined new modes army. The bed shows the two men at the ready with their canons on the colourful battlefield.
