A SPECTACULAR carpet of flowers graced the floor of St Mary’s Church in Fordingbridge at the weekend for its annual festival.

Hundreds of visitors flocked to the church to see the displays of blooms in the theme of God’s Garden, which crammed every nook and cranny.

Festival organiser Helen Tague said: “There were about 30 ladies who created the displays and made the floral carpet look so wonderful. The weather was fantastic and the event was a resounding success.”
