Patches of snowdrops popping up are a sure sign that Spring is almost here again.
Visitors to a Snowdrop Weekend, organised by Shropshire Churches Tourism Group, were delighted with the display of blooms.
Anni Holden, secretary of the Tourism Group, said: “This is a great time of year for people to have a look at their local churchyard."St Peter's, in Stanton Lacy, is one of the outstanding places for snowdrops."The building is worth looking into as well as it is more than 1,000-years-old." Anni is also a Trustee of Caring for God's Acre with special responsibility for the Churchyard Task Team.
She said:"Many other churches are homes to snowdrops so I would advise people to go and check out those in their locality."Then, in March, the primroses and daffodils will take over and provide more marvellous displays of colour."
