Society's Annual Garden Party, Sunday 19 May 2013


The weather was very kind to us for our annual garden party this year, after a couple of years when visitors had to take shelter from the rain.  Over 50 members,  guests and visitors saw the garden at Little Orchard House in brilliant sunshine and enjoyed the cream teas and other refreshments.  The "secret" garden is situated in the middle of the Citadel area of the town, not visible from the streets outside, and was looking at its very best.
Some visitors enjoyed seeing the garden from the top of the tower, possibly a look-out for smugglers in the past but more likely a folly.

Many thanks to Rae Festing, Valerie Sumner and David and Gem Tomkinson for organising the refreshments, to Nicki and Andy for opening their garden for the event and to everyone else who helped make it a success.
