Garden lovers will enjoy a talk by expert Alan Gray at Beccles Public Hall on Sunday, March 20 at 2.30pm.

He will be featuring East Ruston Old Vicarage - one of the most remarkable and enjoyable gardens made in recent years.

Created by Alan Gray and Graham Robeson, now 15 years old and expanding at a rate of knots, it is a feast of formal design and decorative exuberance.

It is located quite close to the sea and well protected from the full blast of the wind by dense wind breaks, making it possible to grow remarkably tender plants.

Tickets cost £5 and there will be refreshments, a raffle and the annual seed swap. For more information visit www.becclespublichall.org.uk
