A HAMPSHIRE garden fair, which had been cancelled, has found a new location.

Bishop's Waltham Charity Garden Fair was going to be held at Wintershill Hall, Durley, but organisers recently announced it was cancelled due to waterlogged grounds. 

A new location has now been found with the event being held at Bishop’s Waltham Palace on Sunday, May 5.

The fair is held in aid of St John of Jerusalem Eye Hospital which treats people regardless of ethnicity or ability to pay, in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

The garden fair celebrated its 20th anniversary last year. Event chairman Joan Ferrer said: “We are so grateful to English Heritage for letting us transfer the fair to the palace so that we will not be letting down our loyal stall holders and visitors and we will still be able to raise much needed funds for the Eye Hospital.”
