I am very pleased to be able to announce the 2017 award winners for Wiki Loves Monuments in the UK. First place goes to Matthew Hoser for his image of the derelict West Pier in Brighton. In second place was Paul Stümke, who captured the Glenfinnan Viaduct at Loch Shiel. Third was Oliver Tookey for the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill on Sea. The special prize for the best image taken in Scotland was awarded to Keith Proven for Smailholm Tower. The special prize for the best image taken in Wales went to Sterim64 for Craig-y-mor. You can see all of these images, and the other stunning pictures that were awarded Highly Commended status, at Wikimedia Commons: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Wiki_Loves_ Monuments_2017_in_the_United_Kingdom/Winners Many congratulations to our prizewinners, and thanks to all who volunteered to help make the contest a success: contestants, judges, reviewers and Wikimedians in many roles. Thanks also for the kind support we received from the International team, from our friendly staff at Wikimedia UK, and from our 2017 prize sponsors, Wikimedia UK and Archaeology Scotland.
