The Cottage Garden

Seen here is the team of Trust volunteers who maintain Crossing Cottage and its garden so that members of both the Trust and the public can enjoy the peace and quiet of the garden on a Tuesday 10 a.m. to 12 noon from Easter to October.  During the winter months, from October to Easter, the gardens are open on the third Tuesday of every month from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.

Why not come and purchase Tea, Coffee and Biscuits at just £1, whiled seated in the garden. Gardeners are on hand to answer any questions about the plants. Also plants, home-made preserves, surplus home grown produce together with local history books, cards and prints will be for sale.

We have to say, thanks to all our members and supporters. 

On Tuesday 18 October, 2022, David Foster, Chair of Frinton in Bloom presented Frinton & Walton Heritage Trust with the Royal Horticultural Society’s Anglia in Bloom “Neighbourhood Award, Level 5, Outstanding” (its highest level award) for the Trust’s contribution to the community of Frinton on Sea.

We wish to mention a few of our supporters by name because of their supreme contribution to our fund raising : 

Ann Layzell, who baked and donated several cream and jam sponges. 

Terence Towns, who contributed an immense array of sweet and savoury items to the cake stall. Just these two people alone boosted the Apple Day total by over £50. Even more poignant is that Terence bakes and donates items to the Trust in memory of his dear friend, Mary Dean, who was in turn, a staunch Trust member and assistant archivist. 

Rachel Baldwin, whose jam and marmalade jars boost our annual sales. Let Rachel know if you have any spare fruit that she can use.
 
However, this is not to detract from our other contributors, who make it all worthwhile, and hopefully, fun! And the visitors, who turn up at all the functions and spend their money and chat and socialise with their friends.
 
Accept our thanks for all your wonderful efforts, and please store away any good quality Bric-a-Brac, jewellery, toiletries, bottles, etc for future events.  CONTACT Ann Gladwell 01255 852914
