The garden at the historic Ribble Valley hall will be open on August 6 and 7 from 1pm - 5pm in aid of three charities. Jean Kay, who designed the garden, gave us an advance tour. She and husband Ken are hoping for a bumper turn-out of visitors to boost funds for Combat Stress, Walking With The Wounded and the Brooke (Action for Working Horses and Donkeys) charities.
