FIVE gardens in Grange-over-Sands are to open to the public on Sunday, July 28, for charity.

Following the success of their first National Garden Scheme event last year, which raised £2,000, Bruno Gouillon and Andrew Fairey, along with four other homes, will be opening their garden gates from 11am until 5pm; entry is £4.

Three of the gardens are on Cart Lane - at Elder Cottage, 21 Cart Lane and Whistling Gem - with two more at Shrublands on Carter Road, and Sunbeams on Kilmidyke Road.

Last year saw more than 300 people visit the gardens.
