ANGLESEY ABBEY near Cambridge offers one of the finest winter gardens in the South, displaying a remarkable riot of colour at the dullest time of the year. Run by the National Trust, and included in the Royal Horticultural Society handbook, it’s a sight not to be missed.
The Friends of Waterlow Park is organising a coach trip to Anglesey Abbey on Saturday 16th February, leaving from Lauderdale House at 9.30am and back in London by 5pm. We’d be delighted if you joined us!
Prices range from £13.00 – £23.50 (depending on whether you’re a member of the FOWP and/or National Trust or RHS). Children are a flat £13 each. Any profit made will go towards the Waterlow Park improvement funds.
For more information email Patricia Walby on patricia@waterlowpark.org.uk or call her on 0207 209 1659 or go to the website: www.waterlowpark.org.uk
Come and join us to help plant a new orchard! The London Orchard Project will be joining us to plant our 11 Fruit Trees.
We hope to also be joined by some guests from Camden as well as our local supporters.
All welcome. Come and be prepared to muck in!
School fair. Fun for all the family.
