Local florist decorates most famous door in the country

A florist from Barwell has won a competition to have her Christmas wreath on the front door of 10 Downing Street.

Flowers by Stephanie, on Chapel Street in Barwell, were commissioned by Friezeland Farm Christmas Trees to make the wreath for the most famous door in the country. 

The competition was co-ordinated by the British Christmas Growers Association. 

Toby Ryley from Friezeland Farm Christmas Trees told Fosse 107 he was delighted to have won the competition but said he was too busy to make the trip to London to see the wreath put into position. 

He said his brother accompanied Stephanie Stanley to place the wreath the on the famous door and also on the door of Number 9 Downing Street.
