South Cliff Gardens, one of Scarborough’s most iconic public spaces, has won Second Prize at the European Garden Awards 2025.
Spanning 16 hectares and holding Grade II listed status, the site features a number of historically significant structures and landscaped areas that have been carefully preserved and revitalised.
The project focused on restoring key features such as the Italian Gardens, Holbeck Clocktower, Spa Tunnel, and fourteen Victorian seating shelters, while also improving accessibility and adding new public amenities. These include a children’s play area, a community building, and upgraded toilet facilities - all designed to complement the site's historic character and coastal setting.
