Chappel and Wakes Colne Open Gardens

This event is resting for 2026
Sorry, but Chappel and Wakes Colne Open Gardens isn't running this year. We'll keep you posted about next year's event details when they are known, but in the meantime we include below details from a previous year to remind you about the event

 approx 14 gardens opened Chappel, near Colchester, Essex
Sunday 12th June 2022
11.00am to 5.00pm

Our gardens vary in size and style ranging from wild to traditionally planted areas.

This year, we have walks scheduled around 'the Outback', a major re-wilding project at Jordan's farm; two gardens that participate in the National Gardens Scheme and a farm garden which houses the Munday-Sayer working observatory. These are all in addition to our pretty, formal and informal village gardens to be enjoyed against the backdrop our Chappel Viaduct, a Victorian engineering wonder and considered to be one of the seven man made wonders of the East of England, and which spans the Colne Valley over the River Colne.

The Village Hall is our base for this year's event where there will be a craft fayre and where refreshments and delicious cakes will be available. Two local Pubs at either end of the villages will also be open.

Proceeds
Proceeds to St. Barnabas and All Saints Churches Fabric Fund.

Plant sales
Plants for sale at the village hall.

Cost
£5.00 adults, accompanied children free.

How to get tickets / programmes
On the day from the Village Hall, Colchester Road; in advance from Wakes Colne Village Stores. Tickets available from 10.30am, so turn up, browse around and have a cuppa before you start.
