Wonderful
day at the Lower Hall gardens
An impromptu tour of the village plant nursery near Lower Hall was a revelation
as well as being entertaining.

Wheatley arranged a private visit to the beautiful gardens at Lower Hall, a privately
owned 16th century timber house in the centre of Worfield, a village 3½
half miles east of Bridgnorth in Shropshire. The visit to Lower Hall was on Sunday
17th August was blessed by beautiful weather and touring the 4 acre gardens was
a sheer delight - the formal gardens with fragrant roses and herbaceous borders,
orchards and a riverside landscaped area with a series of glades.
Worfield
is an extraordinary village tucked away in a valley just east of Bridgnorth and
is beautiful with its many well maintained period buildings. In many ways it feels
like a village that time has forgotten but we heard it is a village with a wonderful
spirit and very active with a new cricket pavilion for the village cricket team.
One feature of the day was a visit to the local church where Ian Quarrington
was invited by the lady vicar to give an impromptu organ recital. The lady vicar
and her husband joined the group for lunch and when invited to sit in a V8 she
hopped in with alacrity - so the V8 felt truly blessed!
The catering at Lower
Hall was provided by three generous volunteers from Worfield village, June and
Ivy with the support of Dorothy.
