Near Howe Digital Photo Competition 2007/8 Results

After careful consideration, we have decided that it is not possible to have one winner of the competition. This year the prize will shared between Tom and Sue Peel for their view down towards Keswick, and David Barker for his snowy shot of Near Howe taken at New Year. Each winner will receive a complimentary night for two in the Guest Houses.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have taken the time to send us entries, and encourage you all to have a go in the 2008/9 Competition.
