NPP REPLACE DRIFTWOOD GARDEN BUOYS


May 1 2013.


Driftwood Garden in Bishopstone has replaced some of the buoys that were recently stolen from the front garden display after Haven News contacted Newhaven Port and Properties to ask if it was able to help.

NPP very kindly agreed to replace the buoys and Driftwood Garden owner and creator Geoff Stonebanks has just taken delivery of them, along with some heavy-duty marine rope to add to the collection of marine objects in his award winning garden in Bishopstone.

The garden re-opens on the 1st of June for the 2013 season. Visitors can visit by appointment through until the 7th of September. Alternatively there are specific opening dates for various charities, which are listed below.
