Talk ‒ St Mary’s Gardens: the secret place            

presented by Zoe Pearce & Sheila Austin
 
In 2016 Whitchurch WI decided to mount a local campaign to get the pitifully neglected St Mary's Gardens cleaned up and restored for the public. In 2017 voluntary work began.
 
The entrance to the garden is opposite the Fox and Hounds pub in Old Church Road. The Fox and Hounds are staunch supporters, and you can park in their car park.
 
Zoe, Sheila, and many other members of Whitchurch WI clearly find the work at St Mary's Gardens worthwhile and rewarding. 

For a detailed report of this talk please see the separate post.
