THREE Ferryhill youngsters have been presented with an award after designing a centrepiece for the town hall gardens.
Steven Lamb, Emma Craggs and Allison Dunn, all students at Ferryhill Comprehensive School, received prizes for their winning designs of a fountain which will overlook the Market Place.
The Mayor of Ferryhill, Councillor Ken Campbell, presented the students with their prizes at the school this week.
The three designs are being assessed by a fountain manufacturer.
It is thought that the best elements of each may be combined into one, with the names of the designers engraved on it.
The fountain, which has been commissioned by Ferryhill Town Council, will stand opposite and complement a sundial that was unveiled two years ago by Prime Minister Tony Blair, who is the also the town's MP.
