'Riot of colour' at Ryston Hall for floral fundraising day

There was a "riot of colour" at Ryston Hall at the weekend, when the estate opened up its gardens to visitors in aid of the local church.

The hall welcomed around 250 people to its gardens, which were full of rhododendrons, azaleas and magnolias, on Sunday throughout the day.

The event raised £1,482 for St Michael's Church.

Secretary Jo Shipp said:"It was a very successful day and we had a lovely turnout."

The open gardens is just one of the fundraising events that the estate plays host to, along with the snowdrop walk which was held there in February.

Ryston Hall will also host the annual Ryston Land Rover Run on Sunday, June 3 from 10am.
