Gardens in Northumberland normally closed to the public will throw open their doors across three weekends this summer in the name of charity.
Every year, Hospice Care North Northumberland hosts Open Garden Season, where members of the public can explore gardens that they usually would not be privy to. The events have raised a six-figure sum over the last 14 years for the Alnwick -based palliative care charity.
This year's programme includes Hedgeley Hall in Powburn, gardens in the Parish of Lesbury near Alnmouth, and Shortridge Hall, Warkworth.
