Burnby Hall Gardens set to be illuminated at night for the very first time to mark Stewarts Trust's Diamond Jubilee
A special event will be held to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of the Stewarts Trust, which was established in 1964 to administer Burnby Hall Gardens and Museum.
To mark the milestone, the gardens in Pocklington will be illuminated with winter lighting for the public to enjoy them at night for the very first time in their 60-year history.
Peter Rogers, assistant estate manager, said: “This is a fantastic and unique opportunity to see the gardens illuminated by night.
“Our gardens have quite rightly been called a ‘jewel in Yorkshire’s crown’ and it is only fitting that we mark our trust’s Diamond Jubilee with a special event which shows off their winter beauty in a very special way.
"Many of our visitors have asked us to do this over recent years, so it’s great that we’re finally able to do so.”
The event will run from November 29 until December 21. Tickets will go on sale on Thursday, August 1, via www.burnbyhallgardens.com
