FROM restoration work on Worcester Guildhall in the 1970s to playing host to Gardener's Question Time in the late 1990s, here are some photos to turn back the years and take you down memory lane.
In the 1970s craftsman started work re-roofing Worcester Guildhall with more than 50 tons of slate brought in from Cumbria for the job. The work was expected to cost £65,000 and was co-ordinated with stone work restoration to the facade. This in itself was expected to cost £30,000 to £40,000.
The Radio Four gurus were in the city to record two programmes in 1997. Keen gardeners and club members from around the county packed out the Guildhall to ask for advice from Geoffrey Smith, Eric Robson, Nigel Colborn and Bob Flowerdew.
