The 10ha site boasts a rhododendron forest, scenic waterfall and hundreds of daffodils in open paddocks. The newly formed Wetherstons Brewery and Daffodils Trust will open the historic site for the first time in two seasons on Saturday, September 9. Trust chairwoman Simone Budge said the site of the Wetherstons brewery once attracted thousands of people, the daffodils proving to be a popular feature. Although the daffodils were yet to bloom, the trust had been busy preparing the site for visitors in time for its opening.
