Broughton Village garden show returns with flowers, cake and history

Garden lovers pitched up to Broughton village on Sunday afternoon to celebrate all things grown. National prize winners Chris Hewlett, known for his giant vegetables and Mary Ridley, Royal Horticultural Society’s trusted judge of snowdrops, opened their gardens to share their knowledge and entertain visitors. There were 16 gardens on show and people were invited to enjoy tea and cake at the popular event which was meant to happen last year but was postponed due to Covid. As well as small cottage gardens and vast acres of green by the Wallop Brook chalk stream, Broughton has a well-documented history, and this was the perfect opportunity to showcase material from the newly established archive of the village which was donated by a former GP and funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
