The sign welcoming those who pass it into Workington. Proud winners of Cumbria in Bloom on several occasions. The sign doesn't indicate Workington's fate in the competition in the years since 2005, I couldn't help thinking whether they had simply ran out of space on the sign or if their fortunes in the competition had waned since.
