Worsley Archives - Southport and Formby Association of the National Trust

Q: How do you enjoy a (sunny) day in August? A: At the 154 acre green space that is the fifth and newest RHS garden at Bridgewater close to the historic canal in Worsley. Hassle free travel is followed by deciding how to plan your enjoyment of the visit. After experiencing the Welcome garden, the choice includes the Paradise garden, Kitchen garden or following the winding paths of the Chinese streamside garden. Or simply begin in the 11 acre Victorian garden, one of the UK’s largest. You also have the choice of planning a picnic lunch, cafe catering or a mixture of both.

Mobility aids are available with a refundable deposit and can be requested when booking the outing. The coach will pick up at Churchtown, Southport, Birkdale, Ainsdale and Formby. See SoFA Spring Magazine for details.
