“HIDDEN” gardens in Blandford will open to the public on Sunday.

Eighteen private gardens across the town will open as part of Blandford Hidden Gardens 2010, an event co-ordinated by the Blandford Stour Rotary and the Clean-up Blandford Campaign, with support from the Blandford Information Centre.

More than £1200 was raised last year for the town’s charities by visitors paying a small entry fee to gardens in the Georgian town.

Blandford Town Museum’s Victorian garden will be among those on display.
