Wakefield Museums and Castles

The snow is still lingering this bright Monday morning. That stops us doing any work in the Medieval Herb Garden today. 

This week we will be doing more research on the plants in the garden instead.

Fortunately, the snow doesn’t seem to have badly damaged any plants on the MHG. Nine plant varieties are still hanging in there, with flowers poking through the snow. 

See how many plant varieties you can find on your next walk around the castle.
