A ROSE GARDEN has reopened at Trenance in Newquay after months of improvements.
Cornwall Council's environmental projects team gave the site an overhaul – including installing a new drainage system and steel gazebo, as well as removing compacted and diseased soil and rotten timber edgings.
After work was completed new blooms supplied by The Cornish Rose Company were planted.
The garden was officially opened by chairman of Cornwall Council, Pat Harvey, on Monday.
She said: "I am delighted to be reopening such a well-loved community garden. A lot of care and hard work, which has taken many years, has gone into improving the rose garden and all the many people involved have done a wonderful job." George Edwards, Cornwall councillor for Newquay Treloggan, said: "I felt they had deteriorated for long enough and now through hard work and commitment we have brought them back to their former glory."
