Flying the Flag

I am delighted that St Margaret’s Park in Corstorphine has been awarded the prestigious Green Flag. 

Edinburgh now has 20 out of Scotland’s 34 Green Flags and the Walled Garden on Corstorphine Hill has once again received the Green Pennant – the green flag equivalent for gardens.

This is a fantastic achievement. Our Parks team are rightly chuffed at this. So much hard work goes into keeping our parks up to this standard and the inspection is very rigorous. The council also has to demonstrate they have engaged with the community in each of these areas so a big thank you has to go the various “friends” and community groups who have helped with this.
