A festival of flowers is being held in the chapel of the historic Arundel Castle to celebrate the Feast of Corpus Christi.

It will be the second time the 14th Century Fitzalan Chapel has been decorated with flowers and is timed to coincide with the carpet of flowers on show in Arundel Cathedral.

The Duchess of Norfolk will be arranging a display with 13 local flower clubs. The theme this year is saints and includes 16 floral displays.

The clubs met the duchess recently at the castle to discuss their ideas. Their efforts have been co-ordinated by Penny Goldsworthy, whose flower displays can be seen in the castle throughout the year.

The festival will be held in the Fitzalan Chapel from May 25 to 27.
