THERE are delays around Woodstock due to visitors arriving at Blenheim Palace for the flower show. 

The three-day event, opened yesterday by Mary Berry, is expected to attract thousands of people over the weekend.

 

Stagecoach is warning passengers of delays of up to 20 minutes on its S3 services due to traffic heading to the show and carnival. 

This year the show was opened by television presenter Mary Berry, who has been a judge on the BBC programme The Great British Bake Off since it began in 2010.

Mrs Berry said: "I am almost as happy in a garden as I am in a kitchen. I’m particularly looking forward to seeing the amazing floral displays from some of the country’s leading nurseries as well as being inspired by the fantastic show gardens."
