VISITORS can enjoy the sight of snowdrops carpeting a winter garden as part of a national charity project.

The garden at Court House, in Stretton-on-Fosse, will open up to the public from 11am to 2.30pm on Sunday, February 19.

The event forms part of the National Gardens Scheme, which last year raised £2.7 million for palliative care charities.

The village garden design is inspired by Anglesey Abbey's two-acre site.

Entry costs £5 and is free for children. For more information call 01608 663811.
