Visitors to Guiseley are being invited to enjoy a three-in-one treat on Sunday as the West Yorkshire Red Cross opens several gardens in Guiseley.

A woodland garden in Park Road, the home of Stanley Haddock, has impressive stone features.

Elsewhere, at Cailness, in Moorway, the home of Joan and John Moorhouse, is a hillside setting covering a third-of-an-acre and containing a collection of geraniums and herbaceous borders.

There is also a pond and a large rock garden sporting a variety of plants, flowers, scree and a gazebo which offers an impressive view of the area.

Michael and Margaret Parker, of Hawksworth Avenue, offer a welcome for members of the public to view their displays of wisteria and old- fashioned roses, as well as a selection of ferns, containers and a silver border small scree.

There will be plant stalls on the day, with specimens and cuttings of all shapes and sizes.

The three gardens are part of the West Yorkshire Red Cross Open Gardens, and an admission fee of £3 for adults and £1 for children will allow access to all three gardens.

All proceeds are for the Red Cross.

The venture is being supported by Yorkshire Water, who have pledged to provide a free-water-saving device to every visitor passing through the gates.

Yorkshire Water will also be handing out advice on how people can reduce the amount of water they use in their homes and gardens.
