The Bishop of St Albans will be opening his garden on four Sundays in February and March for people to come and look at the display of snowdrops. Those who came to visit in the summer will know that the garden is delightful, it also has an appeal to visitors in the spring as the snowdrops herald the end of winter .
The two acres of garden is an oasis in central St Albans and only open to the public on selected Sundays in the spring and the summer.
Spring opening days are 18 February, 25 February, 3 March and 10 March. Entrance is £5 per person (children free) and dogs on leads are welcome.
Footwear suitable for the time of year is advised.
All money raised is donated to the Beds and Herts Historic Churches Trust
