As many of you know, we inherited a lot of derelict buildings, with no or badly damaged roofs, or which were sealed up & in the following few months revealed all sorts of things as we gradually opened them up. And look where we are today -
So - when you are have a drink today - raise the glass or tea/coffee cup and say - Happy Birthday Old Bolsover Yard!

Plants ......
Whilst there are other businesses selling plants, especially on market days, they have decided to 'give it a whirl' and see what happens. So - if you are looking for some plants as you start your gardening for this year, come in & see what they have got to offer.
